If you have a ceiling fan that has stopped working, the first thing you should check is the wiring. There is a chance that your ceiling fan is loose. This can lead to problems with power and the speed of the fan. To determine whether the wiring is loose, use a circuit tester. If the breaker is still intact, you need to reset the breaker. If the breaker is still on, it is time to replace the wiring.
Depending on your ceiling fan’s size, you can check the connections by removing the cover and examining the motor. The electrical connection should be open, but if you cannot see any power on the meter, it is time to replace the motor. If you cannot find a suitable replacement for the motor, it is best to replace the whole ceiling fan. However, if the electrical problem is not that complex, it may be worth the cost of hiring a professional electrician to repair the issue.
If the problem is not caused by the wiring, it may be caused by a short circuit. To identify the cause of this, you must first dismount the ceiling fan. This is difficult since the fan is heavy and awkward to handle while on a ladder. If you can, remove the blades and take apart the entire ceiling fan. This should solve the problem. If the electrical circuit is still open, the next step is to replace the motor.
