Possible Causes

Failed fan motor, Seized fan bearings, Obstruction in the fan blades, Faulty fan thermostat, or wiring.

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect the power and allow the oven to cool completely before removing the rear panel.

  • Listen for fan: When the oven is on a fan setting, you should hear the fan running. If silent, suspect the motor or control.
  • Check for obstructions: Remove the fan cover inside the oven and check for loose screws or debris jamming the blades.
  • Spin test: With the power off, gently spin the fan by hand. If stiff or noisy, the motor is likely failing and should be replaced.

When to call a technician: Replacing the fan motor involves removing the rear panel and disconnecting wiring; this is best performed by a professional.
