Hello,
I received a ceiling fan that I was trying to repair. The celing fan looked to be in good shape but will not start, hum or anything. I have checed the switch and capacitor and they are all good.
I think the problem is in the copper coils inside the motor housing. I have it apart and i have noticed i have four wires around the windings, and three of the wires have two separate thin (windings)copper wires attached to one of the copper coils assembly and soldered in at the end of the individual wire around the tower, however, the brown wire only has one and one is loose(I assume). I have looked on the coil if there was a wire unattached and there is one. I think it may go to either the red wire or the brown since both have only one small thin copper winding wire.The other two wires have two winding wires soldered. i have done a continuity test and the red wire has conductuity to each of the wires.(??)
thanks for any help
