Possible Causes

Normal cool-down feature, Stuck fan relay on control board, Overheated internal components requiring extra cooling

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: This symptom is usually not dangerous if the fan eventually stops. If the fan runs indefinitely, unplug the unit.

Step 1 – Determine if behavior is normal

  • Many Dash models run the fan for a short period after cooking to cool internal parts.
  • If the fan stops within 5–10 minutes, this is typically normal.

Step 2 – Check for overheating

  • If the exterior is very hot, ensure proper ventilation around the unit.
  • Clean vents and interior to improve airflow.

Step 3 – Abnormal continuous running (advanced)

  • If the fan never stops until you unplug the unit, the control board fan relay or transistor may be stuck on.
  • Board-level repair is not recommended for most users; replace the main control board if this behavior is persistent and not model-specific.
