Outdoor Bryant condenser runs (fan spinning) but indoor blower does not run; coil may freeze and little or no air comes from vents.

Safety first: Turn off power to the furnace/air handler at the breaker. Blower compartments contain high-voltage wiring.

Steps:

• 1. Check blower door switch: Ensure the blower door is fully closed and engaging the safety switch.
• 2. Inspect control board fuse: Replace a blown 3–5A fuse once. If it blows again, stop and call a technician.
• 3. Listen for motor operation: With power restored and a call for cooling, listen at the air handler. A humming sound without rotation suggests a failed capacitor or seized motor (for PSC motors).
• 4. Check blower wheel: With power off, spin the blower wheel by hand. It should rotate freely. If stiff or scraping, the motor bearings or wheel are failing.
• 5. Professional replacement: Blower motor and capacitor replacement on Bryant units should match OEM specifications and is best done by a professional.
