How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power before servicing blower components.
- Check for overheating: After shutdown, carefully feel the blower motor housing. Excessive heat suggests overload.
- Clean blower assembly: Remove dust and debris from the blower wheel and housing.
- Test capacitor (PSC motors): Replace if out of tolerance.
- Inspect ECM module (if equipped): Look for burn marks or water damage on the ECM control module attached to the motor.
Persistent blower lockouts usually require motor or module replacement by a technician.
