# Hatco Fan Is Stopped: the ITQ cooling fan is not turning

The ITQ uses a fan to cool its electronics.

## What Fan Is Stopped actually means.

The ITQ uses a fan to cool its electronics. When the control sees the fan not turning, it shows Fan Is Stopped. The manual asks first for a check of physical blockage, then fan voltage and wiring to the control board, and ends with a new cooling fan.

What to do when Fan Is Stopped shows on the commercial appliance

### Kind of code Motors and drives

Something that should turn is not turning, or not at the speed the controller expects. A washer-extractor's drive or its inverter may stop the spin when the load is out of balance or a bearing drags, a tumbler's belt may slip so the drum barely moves, a convection or combi fan may slow on worn bearings and bake unevenly, and a dish machine's wash pump may hum without spraying. Redistributing a load, confirming the door is latched and running the machine's own test cycle are fair; a drum, a belt or a motor is a visit, and nobody reaches into a drum that could still move.

### Usually leads to Commercial laundry machine repair

Coin, card and on-premise laundry machines and tumblers: door locks, bearings, inverters, burners and payment hardware.

### Shows up as Commercial Appliance Error Code on a Combi, Fryer, Dish Machine or Laundry Display

A commercial appliance error code appears as letters or numbers on a combi, fryer, reach-in controller, dish machine or laundry machine display, or as a flashing light or an alarm tone.

### Make Hatco

Hatco equipment is often checked in the gap between breakfast and lunch, when the station it serves can do without it for a short while.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Hatco's own guidance for Fan Is Stopped on its commercial appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Switch off and unplug the toaster and let it cool.

02

Look for crumbs, paper or debris near the fan and filter openings and clear them.

03

Make sure the unit stands on its legs so air can reach the fan.

04

A second appearance means the fan and its wiring need a technician; book a visit.

### What not to do

Fan Is Stopped is not a filter reminder; Clean Fan Filters is the message for a clogged filter. It is not a heating problem either, though running without the fan can harm the controls.
