Possible Causes

Seized convection fan motor, Broken fan motor wiring, Obstruction preventing fan blade rotation, Failed fan driver circuit on control PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the air fryer. Do not attempt to spin the fan while the unit is powered.

Steps to address E7:

  • 1. Visual fan check: Remove the basket and look up at the convection fan blade behind the guard. Check for food pieces or foil blocking the fan.
  • 2. Clear obstructions: If you see debris, carefully remove it with long tweezers or a wooden stick. Do not bend the fan blades.
  • 3. Access fan motor: Remove the outer housing to reach the convection fan motor assembly. Try gently turning the fan by hand; it should spin freely. If it is stiff or stuck, the motor bearings may have failed.
  • 4. Inspect wiring: Check the fan motor wires and connector to the control PCB. Reseat the connector and look for damaged insulation.
  • 5. Replace fan motor: If the motor is seized or open (no continuity), replace it with a compatible Granitestone convection fan motor assembly. Transfer the fan blade to the new motor if necessary.
  • 6. Control board check: If the motor and wiring are good but the fan never receives power, the fan driver circuit on the control PCB may be defective, requiring board replacement.
