Possible Causes
Burned-out fan motor, Jammed fan blades, Faulty fan relay, Loose wiring to fan motor
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power and allow the oven to cool.
- Check for obstruction: Remove the rear inner panel and ensure nothing is blocking the fan blades.
- Spin test: Gently spin the fan by hand. If stiff or seized, the motor bearings may have failed.
- Test motor: Measure resistance across the fan motor terminals. An open circuit indicates a failed motor.
Replace the convection fan motor if seized or open. If the motor is good but does not receive power, the control board relay may be faulty.
