Napoleon 65031 Commercial Grade Rotisserie Motor for Napoleon Gas Grills

What Problem This Part Solves

A failing rotisserie motor may rotate inconsistently, stall under load, make excessive noise, or stop turning the spit completely. Uneven or interrupted rotation can result in inconsistent cooking and makes it difficult to take full advantage of the grill's rear rotisserie burner.

The Napoleon 65031 replaces a worn or failed commercial rotisserie motor and restores continuous powered rotation of the spit rod.

It is especially useful for larger cuts of meat where a stronger commercial-style rotisserie system is desirable.

FAQ Section

Does this fit my grill?
The Napoleon 65031 is used on numerous Napoleon grills, including Prestige PRO, Built-In Prestige PRO, and Built-In 700 Series models. It is currently listed by Napoleon for models such as the PRO500V, PRO665V, BIG32, and BIG44. Confirm your grill model and rotisserie configuration before ordering. 

Is this the commercial-grade or standard heavy-duty motor?
The 65031 is Napoleon's commercial rotisserie motor. Do not confuse it with Napoleon 65011, which Napoleon identifies separately as its heavy-duty rotisserie motor.

How much weight can the motor turn?
Napoleon states that its commercial-grade rotisserie kit, which uses a commercial motor with its large stainless steel hexagonal spit rod, can hold and turn up to 55 lb (25 kg) of food. Actual performance depends on using the appropriate Napoleon rotisserie system and properly balancing the load. 

Can I use this motor to replace a failed original motor?
Yes, when 65031 is specified for your grill or rotisserie kit. Remove the old motor from its mounting bracket, install the replacement, and verify that your spit rod properly engages the motor before cooking.

Why choose the Napoleon 65031 instead of a universal rotisserie motor?
The 65031 is the Napoleon-specified commercial rotisserie motor used in factory parts documentation for compatible Napoleon grills. This makes it the appropriate replacement when your grill or Napoleon rotisserie system calls for part 65031.
