Panasonic Fan Not Running / Convection Failure

Air fryer fan does not run; heater may still get hot but there is little or no air circulation.

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 convection fan motor, Obstructed fan blades by debris, Disconnected fan wiring, Faulty fan driver on PCB

Safety first: Unplug and cool the unit.

Listen for fan: During operation, you should hear a steady airflow noise. If silent, the fan is not running.
Check for obstructions: Look through the top or rear grill for stuck food, foil, or paper. Do not insert metal tools.
Stop using if no fan: Running the heater without a fan can cause overheating and damage.

Warning: Fan motor replacement requires disassembly. Contact a technician if you are not experienced.
