How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before accessing the blower housing.
Steps:

- Check blower wheel: Ensure the blower wheel is firmly attached to the motor shaft and not cracked.
When to call a technician: If the blower motor does not run or the wheel is damaged, replacement is recommended by a professional.
