Possible Causes

Failed drying fan motor, Blocked air duct or condenser channel, Loose fan wiring, Faulty control board fan driver

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dishwasher before removing side or top panels.

  • Access fan assembly: On Teka dishwashers with active drying, the fan is usually located in the top or side panel connected to an air duct.
  • Check for obstructions: Inspect the air duct and condenser channel for lint, plastic film, or other obstructions. Clean thoroughly.
  • Test fan: With the fan disconnected, measure the motor coil resistance. An open circuit indicates a failed motor. Also check that the fan blades spin freely by hand.
  • Inspect wiring: Ensure the fan connector is secure and wires are intact.
  • Replace fan: If the motor is defective or seized, replace the drying fan assembly.
