Fan: Vornado Portable Heater fan just quit working?

Mon, 27 Oct 2025 04:24:46 -0700

I have a small portable Vornado Heater that was making a noise every once in awhile when I had it on. I tapped it, and the noise went away - thought maybe paper or something was stuck in it, but then it quit running all together. I have power going to it, but appears the fan is not spinning?

Is there a way to take the device apart and fix the fan? If the fan even is the problem.

Thanks,

Toshiba EFS 75 Stand fan: Fan motor hums/buzzes when turned on. Blades turn very slowly.

Mon, 01 Sep 2025 07:34:10 -0700

Toshiba EFS 75 Standing fan

My standing fan stopped working and whenever I turn it on I hear either humming or a loud buzzing noise and the blades turn very slowly. The blades spin by hand easily enough when the fan is off, so I'm sure there are no problems with mechanical friction or obstructions. However, as soon as I turn the fan on the blades suddenly get a lot of resistance to them. I even tried to get the blades spinning at a moderate speed before turning the fan on, but when I do the blades stop quickly as if the motor acts like a magnetic brake.

Looking online, the most common diagnosis to this problem was a faulty motor capacitor so I took that out and replaced it yet the same issue persists. Another solution I found is to check the leads on any sort of starting clutches but it appears that this particular motor is a simple, single capacitor motor.

Tower Fan: It has 124V at the circuit but still not turning on

Wed, 20 Aug 2025 12:58:03 -0700

I tested my tower fan with a voltage meter and confirmed that it is receiving 124 volts. Despite this, the fan still does not turn on. I’ve double-checked the power source and connections, and everything seems fine.

Has anyone experienced something similar or can suggest what might be causing this issue? Any advice on troubleshooting or possible internal faults would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Casablanca W-11 Wall Control: Ceiling fan running slow

Tue, 12 Aug 2025 08:33:04 -0700

My Casablanca ceiling fan runs quite slow even when on high. I looked up online to see how to fix a slow running fan and most solutions seem to be to replace an old capacitor. I opened the hood of my ceiling fan to take a look at the capacitor but unfortunately I don't see one that is easily detachable. I'm looking for some help on how to fix this particular model
