Possible Causes

Failed convection fan motor, Broken fan blade, Faulty convection relay on control board, Obstructed fan intake

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before servicing.

  • Check fan operation: Start a convection bake cycle and listen for the fan. If silent, the fan may not be running.
  • Inspect fan: Remove the interior rear panel to access the convection fan. Check for broken blades or obstructions.
  • Test motor: Measure resistance across the motor terminals. An open reading indicates a failed motor.
  • Replace motor: Install a new JennAir-compatible convection fan motor and blade if defective.
  • Control issue: If the motor is good but never receives power, the control board's convection relay may be faulty and require replacement.
