Frigidaire freezer fan motor works for 5 seconds then stops, how do I fix it?

If the Frigidaire freezer fan motor stops working after running for 5 seconds, you can try the following steps to fix it:
  • Unplug the freezer from the power source for safety.
  • Check the fan blades for any obstructions or debris causing them to get stuck. Clear away any blockages and ensure the blades can rotate freely.
  • Inspect the fan motor for any visible damage or loose connections. If the motor appears faulty, it may need to be replaced.
  • Verify the fan motor wiring connections are secure and not damaged. Reconnect any loose wires or repair any damaged wiring.
  • Plug the freezer back in and test the fan motor. If the issue persists, it is recommended to contact Frigidaire customer support or schedule a service appointment with a qualified technician for further diagnosis and repair.
