Possible Causes

Overheated internal components requiring extended cooling, Stuck relay or triac controlling fan, Firmware glitch in cooldown routine, Faulty PCB temperature sensor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: This symptom is usually not dangerous but monitor for unusual smells or heat.

  • Allow full cooldown: Let the fan run until it stops by itself. This can be normal after very hot or long cooking cycles.
  • Power reset: If the fan does not stop after a reasonable time (e.g., 15–20 minutes), unplug the unit to stop it, then plug back in and observe behavior on the next use.
  • Inspect control PCB: If the fan runs continuously whenever plugged in, the fan relay or triac may be stuck on. Replace the main control PCB or the faulty component.
  • Check PCB sensor: Ensure the internal PCB temperature sensor is correctly mounted; a sensor reading too hot may keep the fan running.

Warning: Continuous fan operation when idle indicates a control fault; disconnect from mains when not in use until repaired.
