Tried that and it did not work tried moving the nut on the switch. Everything else looks ok. Do you need to do it a bunch of times? I did not want to unscrew the nut because I was afraid the plunger would fall down in. What now?
Thank you Thank you,,,, I was able to reach that plunger after I took the inside screen off, stuck my fingers up though the fan and worked it up and down a few times, then the fan started to turn,,,will get on the roof on a lot cooler day and spray some dry silicone on it.
Found that fuse had fallen out of fuse holder on ceiling fan. Now I can’t get the fuse to stay in the fuse holder. Had to duck tape to hold it in place. Any suggestions.
@tumalo710 if the cap has both tabs that secure it, see if something is obstructing the base securing area. Sometime those cap retaining tabs break off, they are pretty light Duty, I believe the fuse holder can be replaced after market, although it would be more intensive to replace that.
When I turn on my fan the lift motor spins but does not open the cover. It wont open when I manually turn it either. Do you think the lift motor is broken?
@Kendubious so that would depend. I have one, that lifts by the sensor. The other is completely manual. I've seen this a few times in super duty areas where the lift motor can also get so dirty it won't work. I'd try to remove rhw screen, the know and see if something is causing it to not work, because the manual crank should always work even if the lift/electric is bad. Sounds like something is hung up.
@@automotiveinquiries9673 I pulled the lift arm out cranked it with my fingers and it worked. Put it back in and now it is working. I have no idea why. I will probably replace the dome lift arm in the future. thanks for the reply.
@elwoodanderson4149 it worked on mine and all the ones I've done. Sorry you didn't see this run, but it did. I've had tons of great feedback that this worked for other. Most believe it's a replacement, so this is worth a shot.
Saw your video and fixed my fan in 5 minutes. Great tip. Spent two hours checking power, cleaning fan and connections etc before finding your video over lunch.
Wow...I really didn't think this was going to work, but it did. I have a cool camper again! Thank you!!
It did work for me as well. This tip is what we should call Fan Tastic!
The fix worked like a charm. Left cover open and spring switch didn’t like that. Fuse was good.
Thank-you Thank-you Thought I would be buying a new one, but your video let me fix the problem. Worked a treat!
Your welcome.

Thanks, this worked. Amazing what a little WD40 can do.

Can you use regular wd-40?
Ours turned out to be a loose ground wire next to the plunger switch.
Lubricant switch on fan solved problem. Thanks for help
Woow thank you so much,
Thank you Did the trick
Didn’t see it run

My spring loaded switch fell out when I removed the screen it fell down. My fan is in my grooming van.
Oh no. Can you get it back together? You can remove the screen from the inside, then put the switch back together as long as the parts are still good.

thanks!
Is it too early to say I love ya?! (No homo 😆)
