Possible Causes

Defective cooling fan motor, Blocked air intake or exhaust, Fan control circuit failure on power board, Excessive grease/dust buildup

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect the cooktop from mains power. Wait for all components to cool before opening the unit.

User actions:

  • Ensure that cabinet vents and cut-outs specified in the Liebherr installation guide are present and not blocked by panels or stored items.
  • Do not operate the cooktop without proper ventilation space beneath.

Technician actions:

  • Access the underside of the cooktop and locate the cooling fan and air channels.
  • Clean dust and grease from the fan blades, motor, and vents using a soft brush and vacuum.
  • Manually spin the fan to check for free movement; if stiff or noisy, replace the fan motor assembly.
  • Verify that the fan receives the correct voltage from the power board when zones are active; if not, suspect a fan driver circuit fault on the power module.
  • Replace the power module if it fails to energize a known-good fan.
