Timberwolf Fan Imbalance / Bearing Failure

Combustion fan is very loud, rattling, or vibrating heavily.

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

Bent fan blades, Ash or grease buildup on impeller, Worn fan motor bearings, Loose fan mounting screws

Safety first: Unplug the grill and allow it to cool before accessing the fan.

Inspect fan impeller: Remove the fan cover and check for bent blades or heavy buildup. Clean thoroughly and gently straighten minor bends.
Check mounting hardware: Tighten all screws securing the Timberwolf Combustion Fan Assembly to the grill body.
Spin test: Rotate the fan by hand. If it feels rough or wobbly, the bearings are likely worn.
Replace fan assembly: Install a new fan assembly if noise persists after cleaning and tightening.
