The Problem

Solis warning message: Internal fan fault

The Solis warning message Fan Alarm usually means the inverter has detected a fault with its internal fan. The fan helps manage inverter temperature and protect internal components from heat stress.

This warning may appear as:

  • Fan Alarm

When the fan is not operating properly, the inverter may run hotter than normal, reduce output or trigger further temperature-related protection messages.

This type of warning may be linked to a failed fan, blocked airflow, dust buildup, debris, fan motor issues, inverter age or another cooling-related fault.

The Solution

Let e-Solar check your inverter and cooling system

If the warning appears once and clears after a restart, the fan may have recovered from a temporary issue.

If the Fan Alarm warning keeps returning, it is worth having the system checked. Our Perth-based solar team can inspect the inverter and help determine whether the issue is linked to fan operation, ventilation, blocked airflow, dust buildup or internal cooling components.

Contact e-Solar and let us know:

  • The exact error code on the screen or app
  • When the code appears
  • Whether your solar production has dropped
  • Your inverter model, if you know it

Do not open the inverter or attempt to clean or replace the fan yourself. If the warning is persistent, a qualified technician may need to assess fan operation and cooling performance before the inverter is placed under further heat stress.
