I also faced the same problem and was worried because I paid a heavy amount of money on my Power XL but suddenly, its Air Fryer fan stopped working.
I surfed the internet and searched for some solutions.
There are some of the reasons that made a decisive move for my Power XL and it started working fine again. These are mentioned below.
If it’s out of power, plug it in and wait for 30 minutes
If your unit doesn’t power on, try plugging it in and waiting 30 minutes before trying again. Some units can take a little time to fully charge up so you may want to give them some extra time.
Also, make sure you have enough power outlets available. Outlets can often be combined with a simple flip of a switch but if you’re not sure, check with an electrician for more info about making more room for your electrical devices.

If that doesn’t work… If it’s out of warranty, buy a new one. In case your device is out of warranty or won’t turn on after charging, we recommend purchasing a new air fryer instead.
That way you don’t have to deal with shipping costs or delays due to repair or replacement parts. Simply contact our support team and we’ll help get you set up with a new air fryer right away! It’s easy!

Check if the Filter is Blocked
The most common reason why air fryers make loud noises is because of a clogged filter. The filter is responsible for filtering excess oil, and if it’s dirty or clogged, it will become louder.
Fortunately, all you need to do to fix a clogged filter is clean it by brushing off any pieces of food. The food that may have stuck in between its holes needs to be cleaned.
The good news is that filters are easy to clean and maintain. Just simply scrub them with soapy water and let them dry completely before putting them back inside your machine.

Check the Microwave Magnetron
The magnetron is a tube that generates microwaves inside your microwave. These microwaves are what cook your food in a microwave oven.
Over time, these tubes can begin to wear out, and eventually fail completely.
If you suspect that your magnetron might be failing, then you should remove it from your microwave and test it with an ohmmeter.
If it doesn’t measure any resistance, then it’s likely bad. It needs to be replaced before attempting to use your microwave again!
Check if there is a Defect in the Device
If you have a defective air fryer, it is most likely that there is an issue with one of its parts.
Before calling customer service, it would be best to check out if there are any loose connections or damaged components first.
Inspect the power cord for any damages and make sure that it has been firmly plugged into an outlet. If all connections are okay, try changing outlets just in case your home’s wiring is faulty.
The next thing to check would be both fans of your device; they should be running smoothly and quietly.

Fan’s supply may become loose
Check that everything is tight and secure with your air fryer. The fan blades may have loosened from their sockets or something else may have become loose inside of it.
It is better to take it apart and check if anything can be tightened than to leave it unattended and risk a fire.
After taking your air fryer apart, make sure you are careful so that you do not put yourself at risk of an electrical shock from any wires or parts still inside.
After checking, carefully reassemble and test your air fryer’s functionality again before use.
