Fan wont run on auto

For what ever reason my brand new unit....wont run in auto....however the fan will come on if i use manual on for fan then lower the temp...it cools fine but fan runs full time....if i switch it to auto once its running the fan stops, and the unit just starts humming..when i installed the unit i didnt bother hooking up the furnace wires to the ac unit..figured id run two t-stats then trying to chase wires through the walls... any ideas as to why the unit wont work in with the fan on auto setting ??

    i checked the fan and it moves fine....this unit is two days old...so plenty of warranty, its a fresh install for a this trailer that was pre wired for a/c, called dometic and they dont have any customer service, very dissapointed, the dealer that sold it to me cant help either, i dont see this bypass wire... theres three wire that i didnt hook up two blue/white wires for furnace in and one white wire for furnace out to the t-stat...i hooked up the two 12volt wires hooked up the high fan wire the low fan wire the ground and the cool wire, cant be because the furnace isnt hooked up ???

Make sure your tstat is programmed for electric, not gas. Or in the settings you want that the TSTAT CONTROLS THE FAN.

SOURCE: RV air conditioner. Compressor running, fan stops before cool

The fan motor is getting hot and going off on the internal overload in the motor.
This is caused by either a low voltage, a bad capacitor, or tight or dry bearings in the motor.
To check the bearings turn the power off to the unit, then spin the fan blade if it spins freely then the bearings are ok.
To check the capacitor you will need some kind of tester or you can buy a capacitor and replace it, that's what a lot of people do. They usually don't cost very much.
To check the voltage you will need a voltmeter and measure the volts at the unit.

The auto switch for the blower doesn't seem to work. the manual part works.

Have you read the operating manual that came with it? In AUTO, it decides if the room temp. matches your setting you desired.
Other than that,I'd say it needs to be returned for refund. don-ohio (:^)

How can I fix my Lasko E20739 tower fan, when the motor stops running?

That fan has an electronic (computerized) control board which sometimes malfunctions. Nothing new there, right?

The problem is that the cost of the repair can excede the price of a brand new replacement, with a warranty to boot.

You may take it to a service depot and get it checked out, provided you get an estimate and this is done free of charge.
