Failure symptom
Possible causes
Troubleshoot and solution
Fan wheel is broken
Damaged during
shipment
If the fan wheel is broken and your purchase is from
an authorized seller, contact Awoco to get a fan wheel
replacement. Changing a fan wheel is not difficult.
Fan wheel is stuck
or generates
strange noise
The fan wheel is
not seated
properly
Please follow the instruction to open the side cover
and front grille bars. Check if the fan wheels are
touching something. And open the side panel to
reseat the fan wheels to the correct positions.
The magnetic
switch isn’t function
correctly
sometimes.
The magnetic
switch is defective
or close to an
alarm sensor
Don’t place the magnetic switch close to an alarm
sensor. The alarm sensor magnet will interfere with it.
Remove the magnetic switch connection and test if
the magnetic switch is defective.
The air curtain
doesn’t turn on.
(Make sure your
power outlet is
120V before
plugging in. Some
old air curtains
might use 240V)
The magnetic
switch is defective
or loosen
connection
Remove the magnetic switch connection, directly
connect the 2 yellow wires together then test the air
curtain. 80% of the failure is due to the magnetic
switch setup. Don’t use oversize screws, and make
sure the connection is secure.
Circuit board
failure
Toggle the magnetic switch and the switch buttons;
hear if “Tic-Tac” sounds from the relay on the circuit
board. No sound means no power to motor from
circuit board.
Remote control is
not working
Remote control is
defective
Make sure the batteries are installed correctly.
Motor doesn’t run.
But if push the fan
wheel, motor slowly
rotates or rotates
reversely
Startup capacitor
is not connected
securely or
defective
Check if the 2 yellow/orange wires securely connect
to the capacitor under the motor. Remove the fan
wheels and motor to get access if needed.
After above
troubleshoot
processes, motor
still doesn’t turn on
Motor is defective
This chance is very low but it might happen.
Use Ohm meter to measure the continuity between
motor’s white wire and the blue wire to check if it is
open. Open means defective.
