Default Ceiling fan - blades not turning

Sounds more like a bad startup capacitor.


I had to replace the cap in one of our older fans. I just took the old cap
to a local shop that sells and repairs fans and they matched one up for me.
The caps for the ceiling fans come in several mfd values and according to
the repair guy need to be replaced with a like value. Didn't cost much but
that was 10 yr ago. RM ~



Home Depot had some the last time I needed one.
