Display shows E7 and the condenser fan at the rear of the unit does not run or runs erratically; compressor may overheat.

Safety: Disconnect power before removing the rear cover. The condenser area may contain sharp metal edges.

Steps:

• Visual check: Remove the rear metal panel to expose the condenser coil and fan. Inspect for dust buildup, plastic wrap, or other debris blocking the fan.
• Spin test: Gently spin the fan blades by hand. They should rotate freely without grinding or sticking.
• Clean the area: Use a vacuum and soft brush to clean the condenser coil and fan blades. Do not bend the coil fins.
• Check wiring: Confirm the fan motor plug is fully seated on the harness and at the main control board. Look for signs of overheating or melted plastic.
• Test the motor: If accessible, apply the rated DC voltage (often 12 VDC) directly to the fan leads to see if it runs. If it does not, the motor is defective.
• Replace the fan: Install a new condenser fan motor assembly compatible with BODEGA43 wine coolers. Ensure correct airflow direction (usually blowing air through the condenser coil).

After repair: Reinstall the rear cover, restore power, and verify that E7 clears and the fan runs whenever the compressor is operating.
