Montpellier Evaporator Fan Not Operating

Interior fan never runs, and the cabinet has an uneven temperature (cold at the back, warm at the front).

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

Failed fan motor, Obstruction preventing fan start, Loose fan connector, Faulty fan driver on the PCB.

Safety: Unplug the unit before working inside.

Access fan: Remove the interior rear panel to expose the fan.
Check for obstructions: Clear any ice or debris around the fan blades.
Test fan: Spin the blade by hand; if it is stiff or seized, replace the fan motor. Check continuity with a multimeter.
Inspect wiring: Reseat the fan connector at both the motor and PCB ends.
Replace fan or PCB: Install a new evaporator fan motor if faulty. If the fan is good but never receives power, the main PCB may need replacement.
