As an important household appliance, ceiling fans provide a comfortable cooling effect for families. However, sometimes we may encounter situations where the ceiling fan does not working. Here are the reasons and solutions for the ceiling fan not turning encountered by our company's customers:

i) Power issue

1. The power supply is not connected

The first thing to check is whether the power supply of the ceiling fan is connected. Many times, the problem may lie in the power plug not being securely plugged in or the power switch not being turned on. Simply unplug the power plug and turn on the power switch.

2. Wire malfunction

If there are no issues with the power plug and switch, you can check if the wires are damaged or loose. Firstly, disconnect the power supply and check if there is any burning or damage at the wire joints. If the wire is damaged, it needs to be replaced with a new wire or handled by a professional electrician.

ii） Capacitor malfunction

1. Aging of capacitors

In some cases, the problem of the ceiling fan not rotating was caused by capacitor failure. Capacitors are responsible for starting and regulating the operation of ceiling fans. As usage time increases, capacitors will gradually age and fail, causing the ceiling fan to fail to start.

2. Capacitor damage

Capacitors can be damaged when subjected to current surges or unstable power supply, with a common manifestation being the buzzing sound of a ceiling fan that does not rotate. The solution is to replace the capacitor with a new one. For specific specifications, please refer to the fan manual or consult a professional.

iii）Bearing stuck

1. Lubrication issues

One of the important reasons why ceiling fan bearings do not rotate is the lack of lubrication. If maintenance is not carried out for a long time, the bearing part of the ceiling fan may get stuck due to dry lubricating oil. The solution is to disconnect the power supply, drop a few drops of lubricating oil on the bearing, and manually rotate the fan blades to evenly distribute the lubricating oil.

2. Bearing wear

If the problem persists after lubrication, it may be due to severe wear of the bearing, in which case a new bearing needs to be replaced. This job usually requires a professional electrician to complete.

iv)Motor malfunction

1. Motor burnt out

The motor is the core component inside the ceiling fan, and if it runs for a long time, the motor may overheat and burn out. Motor burnout is usually accompanied by a burning smell, in which case the motor needs to be replaced.

2. Motor coil short circuit

A short circuit in the motor coil can also cause the ceiling fan to not rotate. A multimeter is needed to check the resistance value of the motor coil to determine if there is a short circuit. If a short circuit is found, a new motor should be replaced.

v)Inaccurate balance

1. Unbalanced blades

If the blades of a ceiling fan are installed unevenly or deform after prolonged use, it can cause an imbalance in the counterweight and prevent it from functioning properly. The solution is to reinstall or adjust the blades to balance them.

2. Check the installation screws

Sometimes, if the screws of the ceiling fan are not tightened during installation, it can also cause unstable operation and ultimately stop. Check the installation screws of each part and tighten them, which may solve the problem.
