The EI30HI55KS is a 30-inch custom hood insert, sold as the ventilation and lighting unit alone for building into a wood, tile or masonry surround rather than as a complete hood body. It can be ordered with either an integrated 600 CFM blower mounted in the insert itself or a remote blower rated up to 1,200 CFM installed elsewhere in the duct run, and the two configurations are wired and diagnosed differently, so confirming which one is installed comes before any electrical check.
A mechanical control knob that turns freely but produces no response usually means a broken linkage or a failed switch behind the knob rather than a blower problem, since the knob itself does not carry power to the motor directly.
