How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before accessing the fan.
- Access fan: Remove the interior rear panel to expose the evaporator fan.
- Check for ice: If blades are encased in ice, defrost the unit completely and check defrost system operation.
- Test fan motor: Spin the blades by hand; if stiff or seized, replace the Kismile evaporator fan motor.
- Check wiring: Ensure the fan connector is secure on the control board or local harness.
- Control board: If the fan tests good but never receives power, the main control board may be defective.
