Display shows E6 and the internal fan does not run or runs intermittently, causing uneven temperatures.

Safety first: Unplug the wine cooler before accessing the interior fan. Beware of sharp metal edges and ice.

Steps to address E6:

• 1. Verify fan operation: With the door closed and unit running, you should normally hear a small fan inside. If silent, proceed with inspection.
• 2. Access the evaporator fan: Remove shelves and the rear interior panel to expose the evaporator coil and fan assembly.
• 3. Check for obstructions: Look for ice buildup or foreign objects blocking the fan blades. If iced over, defrost the unit completely by unplugging it and leaving the door open for several hours.
• 4. Inspect wiring: Ensure the fan motor connector is firmly seated in the harness. Look for damaged wires or corroded terminals.
• 5. Test the fan motor: With the unit unplugged, disconnect the fan and measure resistance across the motor leads. An open circuit indicates a failed motor. If you have a suitable low-voltage DC source (for DC fans), you can briefly power the fan to confirm operation.
• 6. Replace the fan motor: Install a new "STAIGIS evaporator fan motor" that matches your model. Transfer any mounting brackets or grommets, secure the fan, and ensure blades spin freely.

Note: If the fan tests good but does not receive voltage when the compressor is running, the main control board may be defective and should be checked by a technician.
