Possible Causes

Failed fan motor, Obstructed fan wheel, Loose fan connector, Faulty main PCB fan driver

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before accessing the fan.

Steps:

  • Check for obstructions: Inspect the fan area for foreign objects or heavy dust buildup. Remove any obstructions.
  • Spin test: With power off, try spinning the fan by hand. If stiff or seized, the fan motor is likely faulty.
  • Check wiring: Verify the fan motor connector is firmly plugged into the main PCB and wires are intact.
  • Replace fan motor: If the motor is seized or does not receive power when commanded on, replace the fan motor assembly.
  • PCB issue: If a new motor still does not run, the main control PCB may have a failed fan driver circuit.
