COMPLAINT

CAUSE

REMEDY

Check voltage at outlet. Correct if none.

Check voltage to rotary switch. If none, check
power supply cord. Replace cord if circuit is open.

Check switch continuity. Refer to wiring diagram
for terminal identification. Replace switch if
defective.

Connect wire. Refer to wiring diagram for terminal
identification. Repair or replace loose terminal.

Test capacitor.
Replace if not within ±10% of manufacturer's
rating. Replace if shorted, open, or damaged.

inch clearance to the base. If it is

hitting the base, shim up the bottom of the fan
motor with mounting screw(s).

Check fan motor bearings; if motor shaft will not
rotate, replace the motor.

Check voltage. See limits on this page. If not within
limits, call an electrician.

Test capacitor.
Check bearings. Does the fan blade rotate freely?
If not, replace fan motor.

Pay attention to any change from high speed to
low speed. If the speed does not change, replace
the motor.

Check grommets; if worn or missing, replace them.

If cracked, out of balance, or partially missing,
replace it.

If cracked, out of balance, or partially missing,
