As per topic, recently when the fan was on speed 1, it’s slower than usual. Then a few days ago, now it’s completely stopped. Other speeds are ok. Is this something I can diy fix myself?

Most common is bad capacitor that provide second phase to rotate the motor. Looks like our fan is using remote control and the PCB is inside fan cover at the center there.

Is this a DC fan or AC fan?

If lazy just buy the board on shopee
You can diy repair the board if you want. Change cap

need to replace capacitor n soldering skill required .. shopee got sell the whole set

same model, speed 1 really no wind. i never use speed 1. if can better change other model

Yup, uses a remote control

Uhhhh, I have no idea 😅

Lol you too? Well others have given tips, thanks guys, will checkout the capacitor on shopee..

Actually this model seldom rosak wor. The previous Bayu, yes, every year capacitor condemn. Now this version with improved board design, last very long.

AC... it's a Bayu albeit the improved one with rounded cover. Previous version is the sharp edge cover with lots of capacitor problem.

PCB about 40 bucks only on shopee. Check the model sticker on the fan and buy a PCB that fits. This model easy to change the PCB plug n play. Unless you already have soldering equipment and flux, solder, etc then only bother to replace the caps but technically easier just save the time and replace whole board as the run cap also on its way out (similar lifespan) if speed control cap already kaput.

Not exactly relevant to this thread but based on past experience of getting fancy fans with remote control, now the fans I have in my new apartment are the basic ones without any remote. And they have been working fine for more than 6 years now and I suspect they will go until the very end without any issues. The only minor gripe is the rotating speed knob is loose and sometimes come off but it can be pushed back in.

capacitor issues.
please change it

Thanks for this! This solution worked best! Yeah found the PCB on Shopee. Replacing it was pretty straightforward. Fan working fine now and saved a bunch! Panasonic service was going to charge like 60 bucks just to come check/labour. Third party electrician also was going to charge 70 bucks.
