Exhaust Fan On My Smh1611s Doesn't Seem To Be Working.

On my Samsung SMH1611S over the range microwave, the recirculating exhaust isn't working.  When I turn it on, the air is blowing out the top vent of the microwave, but it doesn't seem to be sucking anything (e.g. steam) into the bottom of the microwave.  I have taken the charcoal filters off but they are clean.  Even when the filters are off, nothing is sucked into the bottom of the microwave.
