What can cause a / C blower motor to turn off?

My best guess would be that the blower motor may have bad bearings or other issues causing it to draw too much current, causing the overcurrent protection on the motor to kick in and shut the motor off.

Why does my furnace blower keep turning off?

I just ran across an intermittent blower issue (cycling on and off constantly during call for heat from the thermostat) that was due to a poor ground connection on my 120 volt to 24 volt transformer on an old Janitrol furnace. The ground side of the 24 volt half of the transformer had 2 wires connected to it.

When to replace the HVAC blower motor controller?

If there is a voltage drop, then the problem is in the control panel and will need to be replaced. If no voltage drop from the control panel, then it is the blower motor controller with an internal fault and will need to be replaced. If for any reason, you can’t rate my answer OKAY, GOOD, or EXCELLENT/3 STARS OR HIGHER today.

When does the blower fan turn on and off?

On most warm air heating systems both the burner and the blower fan unit will run continuously until the temperature at the wall thermostat rises to the thermostat set point. Then the thermostat stops calling for heat and the burner turns off.

My best guess would be that the blower motor may have bad bearings or other issues causing it to draw too much current, causing the overcurrent protection on the motor to kick in and shut the motor off.

What’s the lowest temperature a furnace fan can run?

FAN-OFF: the lowest temperature setting (blue arrow, the left end of the dial) is the “FAN OFF” temperature. The FAN OFF setting lets the furnace blower continue to run for an interval after the furnace burner has turned off, but will shut the blower off after the heat exchanger has been cooled down to this temperature (usually 90 °F).

Why does a blower fan run when the heat exchanger is on?

The blower fan, however, will continue to run until the heat exchanger and the supply air plenum have cooled down. That “run-on” period scavenges otherwise wasted heat and sends it to the occupied space, and it prevents warping and possible cracking damage to the heat exchanger by cooling it down.
