Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the appliance before accessing internal fans.

  • Access evaporator fan: Remove the rear or internal panel covering the evaporator compartment in the Zanussi ice maker.
  • Check for obstructions: Inspect the fan blades for ice, plastic packaging, or wiring that may be blocking rotation. Clear any obstructions carefully.
  • Defrost ice: If the fan is encased in ice, leave the unit unplugged with the panel open until all ice melts. Do not use sharp tools to chip ice.
  • Test fan motor: Spin the blades by hand; they should move freely. Disconnect the fan and measure motor resistance. An open circuit indicates a failed motor.
  • Inspect wiring: Ensure the fan connector is fully seated on the control board and that no wires are broken.
  • Replace fan if needed: Remove mounting screws, install the new Zanussi-compatible evaporator fan motor, and reconnect wiring.
  • Reassemble and test: Refit panels, restore power, and verify that the fan starts when the compressor runs and that E07 clears.
