Wine cooler displays E6 and interior fan may not run or runs erratically.

Safety first: Unplug the wine cooler before accessing the interior fan. Fan blades and metal edges can be sharp.

Steps to resolve:

• 1. Verify fan operation: With the door closed and unit powered (initial check), listen for the evaporator fan running. If silent or intermittent, unplug and continue.
• 2. Access the evaporator fan: Remove shelves and the rear interior panel to expose the evaporator coil and fan assembly.
• 3. Check for ice or obstructions: Inspect the fan blades for ice buildup, labels, or wiring contacting the blades. Clear any obstruction and manually spin the fan to ensure it turns freely.
• 4. Inspect wiring: Check the fan motor connector and harness for loose connections or damaged insulation. Reseat the connector at the fan and at the control board.
• 5. Test fan motor: With the unit unplugged, measure resistance across the fan motor leads. An open circuit indicates a failed motor. On DC fans, verify correct voltage from the control board when powered (advanced users only).
• 6. Replace fan motor if defective: Remove mounting screws, transfer any grommets or brackets to the new motor, and reinstall. Ensure blades are correctly oriented and not rubbing against the shroud.
• 7. Control board check: If the fan motor tests good but does not receive power, the main control board may be faulty and should be replaced by a professional.

After repair: Reassemble the interior panel, restore power, and confirm that the fan runs and E6 clears after a power cycle.
