My Hunter ceiling fan refused to start. The light does not work either. Which tells me its not getting power.
I checked the breakers. But there's little chance this fan is on a breaker by itself and there were no breakers closed.
So I'm thinking possibly a loose wire. But I doubt that. If vibration would've caused a loose wire it would've quit while in operation. This fan worked fine until one day I tried to turn it on and nothing happened. I doubt a wire became loose while it was not running.
Any other possibilities ?
Its not easy to work on, its hanging from a 12 foot ceiling. I'm ready to pull the trigger on a new fan. I figure if I pay an electrician to service the fan, I'm probably already near the price of a new fan.
But I'm giving this old one , a last chance. Thinking it might be something simple.
