Coleman Central Air Conditioner Condenser fan motor does not run
If your Coleman central air conditioner's condenser fan is not running, the most likely cause is a failed run capacitor. A bulging or leaking capacitor can make the fan motor noisy, cause it to overheat, or keep it from starting. Next, a faulty motor control board may prevent the motor from operating or running at the correct speed. If the board and capacitor are working, the condenser fan motor itself may have failed. Less commonly, the condenser motor or another capacitor is defective. This condenser fan troubleshooting guide can help identify whether the outdoor AC fan is not spinning because the motor is not receiving power or because the motor has failed. Turn off power at the disconnect box and circuit breaker before inspecting parts. Testing incoming voltage requires working around 240V line voltage, so have a qualified HVAC technician handle electrical testing or repairs beyond your comfort level. No refrigerant work is covered here, but any repair inside the sealed system requires an EPA 608-certified technician. Enter your Coleman model number to find the exact run capacitor, motor control board, fan motor, or condenser fan motor for your central air conditioner.

03 - Coleman Central Air Conditioner Fan Motor
To determine if the fan motor is working, use a multimeter to test the incoming voltage to the motor. If the fan motor is receiving the correct voltage but the motor still won’t run, inspect the capacitor to ensure that it is not at fault. If the capacitor is not bulging or leaking, replace the fan motor.
