need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall switch location. If you 
cannot lock the circuit breaker in the off position, securely fasten a prominent

blades, or cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between  
rotating fan blades.
