Thanks MC FIX It. This is just what I needed to complete the project, you saved me a service call on this one!
So glad it was helpful. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Simple fix but could easily be overlooked! Thanks
Thanks for watching and letting me know!
Nice fix! I bet that happens a lot bc I’ve let it hang there when cleaning the fan with some compressed air (computer can style). I’ll remember to unplug it or support the light I’m the future.
Good idea. Thanks for watching!
Great video! Thanks so much 👍
Thank you!
Nice troubleshooting! Love these vids!!
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
Yes, I agree ☝️
Great fix! I had to end up bending the outlet a bit towards the other to make a better connection and it worked. Thanks for the instructions on how to get to where my problem was located!
Yes, that is a common problem.
thanks new frn here love it
You are welcome. Thanks for watching 👍
I followed your instructions and it worked. Thanks for making it simple and easy to duplicate!
So glad it was helpful!
What’s that small light we see at the beginning of the video over the Broan name? Was it your camera light setup?
Yes, it was a light for recording. You can see later on in the video what the light looks like when illuminated. Thanks did watching!
Was it lose in there or just not connected? It’s hard to tell. Thanks for a very informative video!
It was loose by just a little bit. I’m guessing from the previous owners of the house. They can get stained and slip out over time due to gravity as well.
Those things can get loose if they hang when someone changes out a bulb. I’ve seen them fall out of the socket before
My connection piece has blown out, can I replace just that part??
They need to make those better bc I’ve had this issue before!
Yes that would be nice!
Well done. Great video and explanation
You are welcome. Thank you for watching
Thanks for these instructions. Mine is crazy loud right now and this just might solve the problem.
Good luck. Thanks for watching
I was totally thinking it would be only changing out the bulb. But I'm glad its more in-depth than that. Thank you
You are welcome!
Great instructions. Thank you for showing us how to do this!
Glad it was helpful!
I had the same problem and didn't do anything with it for a couple years. Saw this video, took action and it solved the problem. Thanks.
So glad you were able to fix it!
Great repair video. Keep them coming!
Thanks for watching and commenting
Thanks for this repair video!
You bet!
This was genius. All I needed myself. How that plug came undone for me, I don’t know. But an easy clip back in and we are good to go.
Glad it was helpful. I’m guessing gravity over time. Thanks for commenting!
Thanks for putting the safety tip in the video. Very important to not get electrocuted! That's a bad for everyone!
Yes it would be. Please be smart and use all safety measures
You’re awesome ! Thank you for teaching us women shit we didn’t learn !
You are welcome! Hope you can fix it quickly!
MC Fix it, thanks for this video. My Mom has a Broan 750 exhaust fan combo light and night light unit. Fan was operating normal. Either bulb was working. Tried new bulbs, same issue. Removed the wingnut from the bulb assembly and re-connected that 3 prong (computer board type - white/black connector cable. Walla! Both bulbs powered on just fine now. Thanks again. Paul
So glad it worked! Hope you have a great day!
i am ordering the new light plug in 3 prong set since the light outlet works when plug the fan prong. I hope it solves the issue.
I LIKE THE NAME OF YOUR TH-cam CHANNEL
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my video!
Any idea what to do when the light is flickering randomly and not working most times, and the fan isn’t working at all? This just started a few days ago.
Sounds like it could be faulty wiring either in the light or even going to the light
Could this be the same reason my brand new light is flickering?
Yeah, I’d try it for sure!
If you can’t twist the nut off by hand what do you suggest? Mine is really on there holding the plate to the ceiling.
An adjustable wrench will work well. I think mine was about 1/4 inch in size. A basic pair of pliers would work too!
Mine is a Nautilus
How'd your project go?
It fixed my problem until I put the nut back on the post. Without the nut the bulb lights. With the nut, no light. I was very careful not to pull on the cord and loosen it from the receptacle. Any suggestions?
I’m guessing there’s still some plug slippage from the outlet once it’s all going back together. You could try this - Turn off your power at the electrical panel. Then use needle noise pliers and bend the prongs on the plug slightly together. Then plug it in. Then turn on power at the panel and test it.
For these type of bathroom fans is there a light already in the fan or you have to install a light to the fan
It depends on the model. Some do some do not.
Yes they may even make a kit that has the ability for a light to be added. I check online for that though
Hi, I have the same bathroom ceiling fan. My light works until I use a led daylight bulb. Any ideas what's going on with that?
Interesting! Do you know what brand the vent fan is? How old would you think it is. I wonder if it’s something with the fan especially if it’s really old. Have you tried a basic bulb?
@@MCFIXIT It's a Broan. Looks just like the one in the video. It's an old model when I use a regular bulb it lights up. When I use the Home Depot daylight bulb it won't.
Very interesting. I’ve never heard of that problem. Is it a low wattage led bulb?
@@MCFIXIT I'm sure it is.
@@kennethhughley1611 I wonder if there's either something wrong with that particular brand bulb with this type of unit. Do you have another type of bulb you could try to see if it works? (even if you have to pull it form another fixture in your house)
I did these steps and didn’t fix it. I plugged the light into an outlet and the light fixture works just doesn’t when I plug it back into the fan. Any suggestions?
Here's the first thing I'd do... Do you have a volt meter? If so, test to both of the outlets to see if you are getting proper voltage. You might have a wiring issue.
