Possible Causes
Failed oven cooling fan motor, Blocked or jammed fan blades, Faulty fan relay on control board, Loose wiring to fan motor
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before removing any panels. The fan blades can be sharp.
Steps:
- Access the fan: On many Tecnogas models, the cooling fan is behind the rear panel or above the oven cavity. Remove the back cover to access it.
- Check for obstructions: Spin the fan blade by hand. It should rotate freely without scraping. Remove any insulation or debris blocking it.
- Test the motor: With a multimeter, check for continuity across the fan motor terminals. An open circuit indicates a failed motor.
- Verify voltage: With power restored and extreme caution, start a bake cycle and measure voltage at the fan motor (only if you are trained and comfortable doing so). If the control sends power but the fan does not run, replace the motor.
If the fan motor is good but never receives power, the control board fan relay may be defective and the EOC may need replacement.
