Possible Causes
Stuck fan relay on Gibson control board, Miswired thermostat fan circuit, Faulty fan timer, Intermittent limit switch causing fan purge cycles
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power before accessing the control board.
Steps to check:
- Thermostat fan mode: Confirm the thermostat is not set to a fan-circulation program.
- Check G wiring: Temporarily remove the G wire from the control board. If the blower cycling stops, the thermostat or wiring is causing the issue.
- Control board: If blower continues to cycle with G removed, the fan relay or timer on the board may be failing and the board should be replaced.
