Sencor Condenser fan failure

Fan does not run; unit overheats and ice production is poor or stops.

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

Burned-out fan motor, Obstructed fan blades, Disconnected fan wiring, Faulty main board fan driver

Safety: Unplug the ice maker before accessing the fan.

Steps:

Check for obstructions: Remove the rear panel and clear any debris blocking the fan.
Spin test: Try spinning the fan blade by hand. If it is stiff or seized, replace the condenser fan motor.
Wiring: Ensure the fan connector is firmly attached to the main PCB.
Voltage test: With caution and only if qualified, test for voltage at the fan connector when the compressor is running. If no voltage is present, the main control board may be faulty.
