How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the ice maker before accessing the fan.
- Clear air paths: Ensure the intake and exhaust grilles are not blocked by walls, curtains, or dust. Clean grilles with a soft brush.
- Inspect fan area: Remove the rear panel and check for debris around the fan blades. Clean thoroughly.
- Check fan connector: Verify the fan’s plug is firmly connected to the control board and that wires are intact.
- Replace fan if slow or noisy: If the fan spins slowly, makes grinding noises, or fails to start, replace the condenser fan motor.
- Test after reassembly: Refit the panel and run the unit. If F1 persists with a good fan, the control board’s fan monitoring circuit may be faulty.
