How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power at the breaker before opening the indoor unit.

Steps:

  • Remove the front cover and filters to access the blower and motor.
  • Check for obstructions and verify the blower wheel spins freely.
  • Inspect the motor wiring harness and connector for damage or loose pins.
  • If the motor receives power but does not start, the DC motor assembly is likely defective and should be replaced as a unit.

Because DC fan motors and PCBs are expensive and require correct diagnosis, professional service is recommended for H6 faults.
