Check Before Replacing

• With power disconnected, verify that the fan blade is not obstructed and turns freely by hand; do not force it.
• Listen for abnormal grinding, rattling, or humming from the evaporator-fan area during normal operation.
• Check the fan wiring connector and harness for visible looseness or damage without altering the wiring.
• If qualified to perform live electrical testing, verify the appliance service documentation before testing motor voltage; do not assume a no-run condition proves the motor is defective.
• A continuity check of the motor windings may be performed only with the appliance unplugged and the motor electrically isolated, following appropriate electrical-safety procedures.
