Possible Causes
Failed convection fan motor, Jammed fan blades due to grease buildup, Loose wiring to fan motor, Faulty fan motor relay on PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Isolate the oven from mains and allow it to cool.
Steps to check:
- Remove the rear inner panel of the cavity to access the convection fan.
- Try to rotate the fan blade by hand. If stiff or seized, clean away grease and debris; if still stuck, replace the fan motor assembly.
- From the rear of the oven, access the fan motor terminals. Check wiring for damage and ensure connectors are tight.
- Measure motor winding resistance; an open circuit indicates a failed motor.
- If the motor is good but never receives voltage when fan mode is selected, the main control board or fan relay is likely defective.
Warning: Do not lubricate the motor with household oils; use only manufacturer-approved parts.
