Possible Causes

Failed fan motor, seized fan bearings, faulty fan speed feedback, wiring fault between fan and PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Isolate electrical supply before accessing the fan. Do not run the boiler with the combustion chamber open.

  • Listen for fan operation: On a call for heat, the fan should start before ignition. If silent, suspect the fan or its power supply.
  • Visual inspection: Remove the front panel and check the fan connector and wiring for burning or loose plugs. Reseat connectors.
  • Spin test: With power off, gently try to rotate the fan impeller. If stiff or seized, the fan assembly must be replaced.
  • Technician tasks: A professional should test voltage at the fan during start-up and replace the fan or control board as needed.
