How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit. The compressor and surrounding area may be hot.
Steps:
- 1. Inspect fan area: Remove the rear/bottom panel and check for debris blocking the fan blade.
- 2. Spin test: Try spinning the fan blade by hand. If it is stiff or seized, replace the fan motor.
- 3. Check wiring: Ensure the fan's connector is firmly attached to the control board and wires are intact.
- 4. Voltage test: If you have electrical skills, test for voltage at the fan connector when the unit is running. If no voltage is present, the control board may be faulty.
