  • This video will show you more detail on wiring your capacitor for your ceiling fan. If your fan buzzes but does not turn, then try pushing on the fan blades. If it starts going then you know the capacitor is bad. Or if the fan only goes one speed, then the capacitor is bad. Always turn the power off before working on the fan.

    You made it look easy! Just waiting for Amazon to deliver my fan capacitor and hopefully tonight I’ll fix our bedroom fan. Great video!

    Great video, thank you! BTW at 5:40 on the video... do you know how to seperate the white connector shown on the middle-bottom of the screen? (for single blue and white wires). Trying to avoid breaking the connector so I can add a new module. Thank you.

    • @fixthemthings
      @fixthemthings  6 месяцев назад +1

      Those white connectors just pull apart. You can push on the small tab but it should just come apart. Hope that helps.

    My ceiling fan doen't do anything anymore. The light still works. Does a fan have a fuse that could be broken? Greetings from the Netherlands

    • @fixthemthings
      @fixthemthings  Месяц назад

      Could be a few things. Most likely the pull chain, fwd/rev switch. Check for burnt wires or bad connections. Check in the ceiling box for the connection to the fan. Should be a blue and black wire.

  • @sudheerkumarr6250

    Does gauge of the wires matter while choosing the capacitor? Like 20AWG to 18AWG?

  • @waynejohnson481
    @waynejohnson481 Год назад +1

    Question. No only does my fan not work but the light does not work as well. Could the light not working be related to the capacitor not working? Thanks

    • @fixthemthings
      @fixthemthings  Год назад

      No. The capacitor is for the motor only. The light uses the pull cord switch unless you have a remote control.

    I replaced my capacitor and still turning real slow. Can’t get the same ceiling fan no more (discontinued). Can you tell me what else could it be?

    • @fixthemthings
      @fixthemthings  Год назад

      Only other thing is the pull switch unless you have a remote control.

    nice video.....so do all ceiling fan capacitors have 5 wires, with all the same universal colors?? Im a novice do it yours selfer, and have come across various old and new electrical components that sometimes have different colors, which can be confusing. Thanks! you got a "like" !

    • @fixthemthings
      @fixthemthings  Год назад

      There are many different types. Just match up the uf values. Wire colors really don’t matter. Hope the video helped.

    My fan is working summer direction ( Anti-clockwise) but it has stopped working winter direction(clockwise). Any recommendation, what shall I do ?

    • @fixthemthings
      @fixthemthings  2 года назад +2

      Sounds like the reverse switch itself is not working. I wouldn’t think it would go bad unless you switch it all the time. If you switch it a lot then yes it may be bad.

    • @fixthemthings
      @fixthemthings  2 года назад

      The pull chain is probably the problem now. They are really cheaply made. Please check the wires going to the switch and see if they are making contact. With power off of course. If you use the pull chain a lot then I would suspect that. I doubt it will be the motor.

      Turn fan on high. If it doesn’t start. Spin the fan by hand. If it stays running then bad cap.
