How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before opening the cabinet.
Steps to check circulation fan:
- Listen for fan operation: On start-up, listen for the internal fan. If silent or noisy, suspect a fan issue.
- Access fan assembly: Remove side or rear panels (model dependent) to locate the internal circulation fan.
- Inspect for blockage: Check for lint buildup or foreign objects in the fan housing. Clean thoroughly.
- Test fan motor: Verify that the fan blades spin freely by hand. Check the motor wiring and measure resistance. If open or shorted, replace the fan motor assembly.
- Control board: If the fan motor is good but not receiving power, the control board's fan driver circuit may be faulty.
