Possible Causes
Burned-out condenser fan motor, Obstructed fan blades by dust or debris, Faulty fan wiring or connector
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before working near the compressor and fan.
Steps:
- Access fan: Remove the rear lower cover to expose the condenser coil and fan assembly.
- Check for obstruction: Clear any dust buildup, plastic wrap, or debris blocking the fan blades. Ensure the blades spin freely by hand.
- Test motor voltage: With the unit powered (exercise caution), measure voltage at the fan motor connector when the compressor is running. If correct voltage is present but the fan does not turn, the motor is defective.
- Inspect wiring: If no voltage, trace wiring back to the control board for loose connections or damage.
- Replace fan motor: Install a compatible Bauknecht condenser fan motor, transferring the fan blade if necessary. Ensure correct rotation and secure mounting.
After replacement, reassemble the rear cover and verify that the fan runs whenever the compressor operates.
