can share your experience? thx

This is the pcb board i take out from the fan... Any idea which things i need to change? Currently the fan spin very very slow at speed 1 to speed 3.


Attached thumbnail(s)

i changed the CBB61 for a unknown brand fan previously to fix the problem.

It's a common problem for remote control fans. All u need to change is the big black capacitor CBB61 in your photo. Just get the same spec replacement from electronic shops, should be around 10-15rm

using panasonic 4 blades fan (4 units) for almost 10 years now.
2 units maybe already changed the capacitor.
now another unit also speed very slow ady.

thanks for the advice...will go pasar road look for big black capacitor CBB61.

I’m always using Hover fan.

Hi everyone, just installed one panasonic bayu 4 fan, but when spinning it wobbles. How to fix it? Must use balancing or what? Unfortunately my wireman threw away the box along with the balancing studs

Also installed 3 deka fans, apparently came with lights (I didn’t know it has lights, the salesman didn’t say anything about lights) however the fan can not detect the remote. Any idea how to troubleshoot?

Also bought 2 kronos, after installation every time turn on the electric will short. Wireman said the fam is faulty, but I was told if I call the deka technician I will be charged even if it is under warranty, if they say it’s wrongly installed by wireman. However wireman insist there’s nothing wrong with their installation but the fan is faulty. Any ideas on this?

Thanks

Any idea where to buy Alpha ceiling fan other than Lazada / Alpha HQ?

Some lighting shop have alpha. The one in Puchong

i gave up on alpha fans and water heaters.

all start failing after a year +

now going for panasonic.....

hi all,
anyone know what is the length of the extension rod that comes with the Panasonic Bayu 5 fan? i need to drop my plaster ceiling but roughly 10inch, not sure if i need to replace the extension rod or not. Thanks.

Probably better to set a new fan hook position on the plaster ceiling.

A ceiling fan requires a certain clearance from above for it to blow adequate air below.

--Should have ask the installer to balance it on the first install. The balancing studs are just some stick on weight which can be bought at electrical shops.--will do this, thanks.

--can the remote change the speed of the fan? if so it could means the LED light on the fan is faulty. --- no the fans cannot detect the remote at all, for speed or lights

---these fan are straight forward install. ask the installer to recheck the wiring and earthing properly. BTW does the two fans have the same problem? if one only have the problem just swap the fan and see if the problematic fan will short when at the other outlet. If confirmed just take it back to Deka for warranty. --- will do that. Thanks.

cheers.

Thanks

Then it could be the remote control unit is faulty. Since you have three units try each one individually and use new batteries. I am sure on will work. cheers.


BTW I have Deka fans too and my opinion of them is not good. they are too flimsy in construction and makes weird noises when in use. Mine is the Baby LED 42 in model.

actually did try all the remotes and sadly none of them could be detected...

bring the remote back to the shop and see if they can switch on similar display models.

Happy to report that the wireman managed to fix (properly) all the fans and now all are working perfectly. Yayy

Thanks ya!

I see KDK fans usually cost a bit more than Panasonic, but they both came from same factory.

Is it worth spending more for KDK? Or you lose nothing getting Panasonic?

Currently my house all use regulator type, I see remote control fans usually very problematic, but the ones with nicer looking blades are all remote type Still kinda curious, so kinda wanna try the top model with DC motor.

Anyone use their DC fan? Can comment your experience?
