That cover got the open/close mark. Carefully check the mark align for open.

Turn till align the open mark, use both hand holding the cover edge, try to rock push down the cover. The cover a bit flimsy/soft. The whole thing might turn a bit. But don't worry about it.

After the cover taken down, you can see 3 screw secure the center cover. Unscrew the center cover and reveal the controller board.

Why you look for a fan that doesn't tell you what is the CFM ?

After install the fan no wind blow how ?

Don't show don't buy la. You want to buy a car that don't tell you what is the CC ?

Later no wind how to claim? They tell you the spec doesn't have CFM. No promise got wind the fan.

See this kind of stupid brand. Fan cost RM7k+. But doesn't tell you how good is the CFM. http://www.grabit.com.my/accessories/fans/...mer.html#mytab2

Just look for those brand/model got tell you what is the fan CFM.

Normally if you want to hang a ceiling fan on a plaster ceiling, you have to tell to the plaster ceiling contractor.

He will put a wood plank and U bolt above the plaster ceiling. Than you can hang the fan.

If it easily can be taken out (loose fit), it mean the bearing housing is wear out. Putting another bearing will not last that long.

Check the bearing housing got any wear mark, burn mark like groove.

This is the main problem and how to solve it.

Search back here.

Get the slightly expensive wan.

Yes. You can go jln Pasar to ask somebody change it for you. With additional fee. But they can't test it for you without the fan.

DC motor is the next generation of ceiling fan. Much more efficiency. And since it is still new in panasonic, the quality is better. Before the cut cost unit coming.

If you have the budget, get it now.

Change that 3 capacitor inside the pcb. There are the culprit.

I have the same problem with the kdk fan. Change the capacitor and it back to normal.

DC fan is low quantity at the moment. But will ramp up once price down. The quality is still good since quantity is not much and no cut cost.

Don't have better design?

My fan also sound like mechanical problem. It keep coming out the sound "tik tik tik".

But actual is the capacitor.

Ya, quite expensive.

Parts probably cost RM10x2 =RM20.

Get a solder iron and a sucker probably RM20+20=RM40

If you know how to do it.

Labour charge la.

Go to BP, wet market opposite shop. Go up further near the college.

The shop name is atlantic electronics.

Just bring the board. Capacitor doesn't related to the remote.

BP=bandar Puteri

If your fan totally not running, it is another problem already.

Can you hear the sound come from the board?

Take it back to the shop and ask them if possible to repair for you.

That sound like a mechanism switching.

The only switching mechanism in the board is the relay. If the sound come from the board. You can try to replace that relay

The big pcs is the relay. But the 2 small wan not so sure. Need close up to see the print side.



That fat boss? Ya he don't no.

Sorry, I not expect and don't no much about electronic.

Another electronic shop you can try is the 1puchong side. Corner shop name Alliance electronic. But not sure they can repair. Ask those malay lady ask the boss.

Ya, all the 3 pcs is a relay. 12VDC coil. You can try to change the relay for the last attempt. But it would be expensive than the capacitor you change. All combine won't be more than RM40 I guess.

The spark from the switch is probably cause by rapid switching on and off. Cause high voltage built up. It can damage some component. But not dangerous.

After long it will discharge. But don't try to rapid switching on and off again.

There is a possible that after change the relay it still won't function. Cause the relay is switch over but the contact have no power in. That probably others component spoil. So it is like guess game try and error.
