High-pitched squealing or chirping noise from inside the cabinet.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Worn evaporator fan motor bearings, Fan blade rubbing on housing, Ice buildup around fan shroud

Unplug the cooler before accessing the interior fan.

1. Remove shelves and rear panel:
- Gain access to the evaporator fan assembly.
2. Inspect for ice:
- Check for frost or ice around the fan housing; defrost if necessary.
3. Spin fan by hand:
- If the fan feels rough or squeals when spun, the motor bearings are worn.
4. Replace fan motor:
- Disconnect wiring and remove mounting screws.
- Install a new Lanbo evaporator fan motor and reassemble.
