How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the refrigerator before accessing the rear compartment.
- Access condenser fan: Remove the rear lower cover to expose the condenser fan near the compressor.
- Clean area: Vacuum dust and debris from the fan blades and condenser coils.
- Spin fan by hand: Ensure the fan spins freely. If stiff or noisy, replace the fan motor.
- Check wiring: Verify the fan connector is secure and wires are intact.
- Test operation: Restore power and confirm the fan runs when the compressor is on. If not, and the motor is good, the main PCB may be defective.
