Electrolux Outdoor Fan Non-Operation

Outdoor unit fan does not run while compressor is operating

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Failed outdoor fan motor, Faulty fan capacitor, Obstructed fan blade, Faulty outdoor PCB fan output

Safety: Turn off power at the breaker before working on the outdoor unit.

Steps:

Check for obstructions: Remove any debris blocking the fan.
Inspect capacitor: On non-inverter models, locate and visually inspect the fan capacitor for bulging or leakage. Replace if suspect.
Test motor: If the blade spins freely by hand but does not start, the motor or capacitor is likely faulty.
Replace motor: Install a new Electrolux outdoor fan motor with matching specifications.
