Hi all SIFU,
My remote controller suddenly stop working. The fan is still working fine but it can't switch On/Off or change the fan speed via remote controller. How to tell if is the remote controller or the fan's chipboard problem?
Fan model : F-M14HW
InfraRed or RF remote?
If IR can check by pointing the remote to phone camera's. U shoud see purple light at phone camera screen when pressing buttons..

If you're using the old bayu, then you should change to the newer bayu. I got fed up replacing the capacitor and changed to the newer design with round cover. Haven't need to change the capacitor even after 4 years.
This is how the old bayu looks like.
got this model (grey color), move slow and humming.. replaced all caps, running speed ok.. but still got the humming... knock it few times still hum.. i guess its the motor itself..

Sorry, is it like this ? Basically just get both the wires from the wall to tie together either with connector or wire to wire directly?
Else tomorrow i might have to remove the fan and see if its the thermal fuse issue which i googled might also be a sign of fan unable to turn on / spin
EDIT :
or can i just touch the live wire like in this above video mark 8.27 , albeit more dangerous , lazy but faster way i think i'll just go with the 1st video i shared, connect via connector then on back the MCB to test it out
well, depends on ur skill and if u r comfortable 'playing' with electrical.. 1st method much safer.. wont accidently touch the live wire there..

Not comfortable, but will close all MCB first since previously change own led lights driver i also off the MCB. Better to be safe than sorry. Will try it out later.
But if after bypass the regulator and the fan spins, what would be the issue which needs attention ? Replace the regulator ?
And if the fan wont spin after bypass regulator, means thermal fuse need replacement ?
if bypass regulator, fan spin full speed, then just get new regulator. if not, might be capacitor at the motor.. else, might be thermal fuse (usually this is rare case) and very difficult to replaced. unless u can do electronics and handle small copper enamel coil at motor, the fuse usually buried abit inside the coils windings.

Bypassed but fan not working still. After i off the MCB, the blue wire still live when i poke it with a test pen but the black one wasnt.
The capacitor was the 1st thing i changed when the fan was not working.
Edit : occasionally i keep twisting the regulator knob, i noticed the capacitor twitch abit. Presume a little electricity was delivered into the fan but the fan didnt moved at all.
Safe to say its thermal fuse issue ?
not sure. u need to do troubleshooting on the fan motor itself. check thermal fuse continuity, coil winding continuity/resistance.
