Prem Air Circulator Fan 18" Voltage Capacitor Replacement

Introduction

When the fan does not work when it is connected tot the wall, an incomplete power circuit connection or the regulator is most likely to cause disfunction. In this repair guide, we will open the fan until the point that all components are accessible. If the transformer is not causing the problem you will be able to inspect all components visually.
