why would a power outage stop a fan model-68168 from working

well check first that ALL you barkers are on and i mean turn off and then bring back up to make sure you get electric to the switch/control part inside the wall. if that will not help my only guess is the black part that control the fan is dead. to be sure i need to open an actual box and look on the electric wiring diagram to see what part can cause that. thanks Avi.

Sorry my fan was not working too,for a week one of the fan stopped working ,since we throw the box we can't return it to amazon,they have to improve this product because the appearance is good but the performance is bad.

Don't know for sure. Haven't had that problem that I know about. It works great when power goes off--no longer have to reset the frig and wait.

I had the same issue...just cut the plug end off and solder splice to the fan controller with heat shrink over it afterwards.

1st You need to make sure the power SOURCE, &/or the PSU itself is not corrupt. Move to another known good AC outlet, disconnect all the cables from the motherboard & plug the PSU directly to the AC outlet with a known good power cable & verify that the fan powers on. (The unit still could be defective, but at least you'll know if it powers on). Plug everything back into the motherboard making sure you have the power connector "clicked" into place & that you confirm 20 or 24 pin connector. try it again. If it doesn't work, you likely have a few blown components on the motherboard.

If you are desperate, it may be possible to do this yourself, at risk of the fan's lifespan if it is frequently turned on and off.The motor appears to be a single-phase AC motor with a capacitor start. My capacitor is 250V rated, so it *can* very easily blow with 220V AC. you need to replace that capacitor easily accessed in the control panel. You want to use a 400V AC motor-start capacitor. Other than that, in normal operation, I believe the speed will be covered by the 50Hz AC you probably get, so it will run just 50/60 83% slower on 50Hz which honestly would be great for noise reasons. You have to be willing to risk losing the fan if I am wrong :'(.

Sorry for your problem but I can't be sure my experience will help you. Mine was direct-wired and burned out in a thunderstorm. Replaced it with a different version. Fan still works fine.

Either they have changed the specifications, or your unit is defective. The fan on my unit only comes on when I've had it under heavy load for awhile, then shuts off awhile after the load is reduced.

same thing with me too........i bought two. one worked with the fan alaways on.The second never worked even for a minute.....not good...

The behavior described is exactly why I am looking for a replacement. Ours starts spinning very slowly, gradually coming up to speed about a minute or so after turning on the switch (it's a timer switch). Called NuTone (Broan) tech support and they confirmed it's on its way out. Sounds like normal behavior is for the fan to turn on immediately.

I am assuming the fan is running and the unit isgetting current? The reason I ask is that the rocker style power switch on the bottom is known to become difficult in turning on/off and go bad. The one thing that comes to mind is when you install the module there is a screw that is designed to draw the bulb inwards as you tighten it. However, this is very poorly designed and the plastic that the screw sets into often gives way and may possibly prevent the bulb from being drawn in all the way to make proper contact. But it sounds like yours is seated correctly, unfortunately I have no true answer. Maybe the UV bulb had been dropped and is faulty even though it is new.

Hi. I looked at the fuse and it looks like it is there to prevent the fan from short-circuiting. If the fuse ever blows, I recommend taking it out and taking it with you to your nearest hardware store so that they can give you the correct size for replacement. Hope this helps!

The coil shuts down and when it is cooled off the fan shut off. Hope that helps

'course! I've not had that issue with this case buuuuuuuuuuuuut there's a few things we can do!Firstly, make sure all the power cables to the fans coming from the case are connected to MOLEX/4pin power connectors (or the relevant ones for the fan you are connecting) and if it's still not receiving power and spinning up either A) Send the case in for replacement or B) Try a replacement power cable to the fan.Not really much more help beyond that which can be offered I'm afraid!

Stewart, this fan consumes too much battery power, suggest you use a small fan like used on a computer, mine works fine. Dennis

I have no idea but, I did call customer service regarding my wiring situation, and they gave me a configuration which made the device work perfectly. My guess, the Fan only feature would not work.

The fan continues until you power off the system. Same for heatand cool cycles.
