Safety first: Disconnect power and allow the unit to cool.

Check for obstruction: Remove the basket and look up at the fan guard. Spin the fan blades gently with a non-metallic tool. They should rotate freely without scraping.
Access the fan: Remove the top cover and any internal shrouds to reach the fan motor. Inspect for food debris, warped guards, or screws protruding into the fan path.
Free the fan: Clear any debris and gently straighten bent fan blades or guards. Do not force the motor shaft.
Test the motor: Disconnect the motor plug and measure resistance across the motor leads. An open or very low resistance suggests a failed motor.
Check wiring and board: Inspect the fan connector on the PCB for burns or loose solder joints. If the motor is good but never receives power, the control board's fan driver may be defective.
Replace as needed: Install a new Lakeland convection fan motor or main control PCB, ensuring correct orientation and secure mounting.

Warning: Do not operate the air fryer with the fan disabled; this can cause dangerous overheating.

E6 displays and the fan does not run, or the unit shuts down quickly after starting.
