How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator and be careful of hot compressor surfaces.
- Access fan: Remove the rear lower access panel to reach the condenser fan.
- Inspect blades: Clear any debris, insulation, or pet hair blocking the fan.
- Test motor: With power briefly restored, see if the fan starts when the compressor runs. If not, test for voltage at the fan connector. If voltage is present but the fan does not run, replace the fan motor.
- Board check: If no voltage is present and wiring is intact, the main control board may be defective.
