Possible Causes
Failed blower motor, Faulty blower relay on control board, Loose blower harness, Seized blower wheel
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power before touching the blower.
- Listen for clicks: When calling for heat, listen for a relay click on the board. No click may indicate a control issue.
- Inspect blower: Remove the front panel and attempt to spin the blower wheel by hand. If it is stiff or seized, replace the blower assembly.
- Check harness: Ensure the blower motor plug is fully seated and wires are not damaged.
- Professional testing: A technician should measure voltage at the blower terminals during a call for heat. If voltage is present and the blower does not run, replace the blower. If no voltage, replace or repair the control board.
