Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug before working near the fan.

  • Check for obstructions: Remove covers and ensure nothing is blocking the fan.
  • Spin test: Try spinning the fan by hand. If stiff, the motor is likely bad and should be replaced.
  • Capacitor (if fitted): Locate the fan capacitor and inspect for bulging or leakage. Replace with the same capacitance and voltage rating if suspect.
  • Motor replacement: If the motor receives power but does not run, replace the fan motor with the correct Devola part.
