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 codeMotors 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.

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.

Questions
about Fan Is Stopped.

Can I clear Fan Is Stopped myself?
Switch off and unplug the toaster and let it cool. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Is it safe to run a Hatco ITQ with Fan Is Stopped?
Not for long. The fan keeps the controls cool, so unplug the toaster and book a visit if clearing debris does not help.
What can block the fan on a Hatco toaster?
Crumbs, wrappers and grease build-up near the openings, or a toaster set down without its legs.
Does Fan Is Stopped on a Hatco ITQ need a new fan?
Often, but the technician checks voltage and wiring first, as the manual describes.

Still showing Fan Is Stopped?

A booking with a code goes further when it has the code as shown, the model and serial from the data plate, and a word on whether the unit still holds temperature, heats, rinses or spins. With those three, the office can match the likely part to your unit the same day.
