Roof Fan shuts down with flashing green light and beeping

My roof fan has been shutting down randomly with flashing green light and beeping.  (I remove the fuse to get it to stop with the green light.). A while back when this happened there were some bugs stuck in there that stopped it from spinning freely.  Cleaned those out, then it worked fine for a long time. I can't find any obstruction now.  It will run well for a while, then just randomly shut down.  It's happening with increasing frequency.

Anyone else have this problem?  What did you do? Any advice appreciated.

Haven't had the problem since this repair.

printed circuit board fix

Thank you! Appreciate all the details. I've contacted Scamp about getting that part.  Mine is no longer under warranty.

MaxxAir Fan Beeping and Green Light

Hi Catdancing, we have had the same problem with our 2020 Scamp MaxxAir fan. The remove and re-insert fuse maneuver works, sometimes even on the first try (!) but this is now very tiresome and we are looking to rip out the MaxxAir and replace it with a simpler, less finicky fan.

Here's how to fix it, ours is a 2021 but it's probably the same fan: https://scampowners.com/forums/airxcel-maxxair-green-led-blinking-fix

Has worked flawless since...
