Gastroback Condenser Fan Not Running

Display shows normal operation but no fan noise is heard and ice production is poor.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Failed condenser fan motor, Obstructed fan blades, Disconnected fan wiring, Control board fan driver fault

Safety first: Unplug before accessing the fan.

Steps:

Check for obstruction: Remove the rear cover and ensure nothing is blocking the fan blades.
Spin test: Gently spin the fan by hand. If it is stiff or seized, the motor is likely faulty.
Inspect wiring: Confirm the fan connector is firmly plugged into the control board.

If the fan does not run when the compressor is on, even after clearing obstructions and checking wiring, replace the fan motor assembly.
