What this usually turns out to be
Cheapest and commonest first, which is also the order we check them in. They sit hundreds of dollars apart, and only the unit settles which one is yours.

The evaporator fan itself
Bearing wear or a failed motor. The commonest mechanical answer.

About Liebherr fan not working
The fastest diagnosis is what the appliance is telling you
Hold the door closed by hand and press the light switch in. On most cabinets you should hear air moving. Silence where there was sound is a real observation and it is worth telling us.
Why a fan matters more than it sounds
These cabinets distribute cold rather than simply radiating it, so a fan that has stopped does not make the appliance warm — it makes parts of it warm while other parts stay right. That pattern is diagnostic in itself, and it is the reason a thermometer on the wrong shelf can make a fan problem look like a refrigeration problem.

Questions about liebherr fan not working
Can I run it with a bad fan for a while?
You can, and the cabinet will keep some of its cold, unevenly. What it costs is compressor run time and food quality in whichever part the air no longer reaches. It is not an emergency and it is not worth leaving for months.
