Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the GFCI breaker before servicing the blower.

  • 1. Check intake: Ensure the blower air intake (often under the cabinet) is not blocked by debris or insulation.
  • 2. Listen for operation: When commanded on, note whether the blower hums, runs briefly, or is completely silent.
  • 3. Inspect for water: Remove the blower and check for water inside the housing. If present, identify and fix the source of water entry and replace the blower.
  • 4. Replace blower: If the blower overheats and shuts off or will not start, replace it with a Coleman-compatible air blower of the same voltage and output.
