Ceiling Fan Problems |

Warranty
Since most ceiling fan motors tend to have long warranties, be sure
to check the owner's manual before proceeding with repairs. Let the
manufacturer deal with a faulty motor if it's under warranty.
Typical Fan Problems
If the fan doesn't move when it's turned on, check to see if the switch
is faulty or if the individual circuit has been switched off in the
main panel box. If the light isn't working, make sure the bulb isn't
burned out.
If the fan is noisy, it could a problem with loose fasteners in the
motor or switch housings, a loose light fixture, damaged blade or
dry bearings. If it wobbles or vibrates, it's generally because the
blades are loose, bent, cracked or out of balance or the fan is improperly
mounted. If the remote isn't functioning, check its batteries before
calling a professional.
Fan Quality
Letting your service professional know what quality fan you have will
help him better determine what it might cost to fix it; ie., the higher
the quality level of the fan, the more time and effort it might take
to fix it.. |
