Greetings from Germany. Thanks to you I could fix it and rest in this heat now
Thanks man! I was about to throw my fan out, but after cleaning it works just perfectly.
Excellent!
From Québec Canada thank you very much you helped me save my fan
Thanks. Different fan, etc. But this gave me the confidence to pull it apart, clean, grease it, and now I have a working fan!
Tysm, I had a bit of trouble putting it back together since mine is a different model but now it works perfectly 💛
Great
you are the best.... talented & charismatic, fast & efficient. EXCELLENT video and demo! Many thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the video, I was able to fix my fan by watching your video, not 100% same but opening it up and cleaning did the trick 🎉
great video, used it twice now to service my fan
Good jod I've taken so many of these apart because I'm using them for scrap metal I have about 15 motors or more and I think you did a good job on fixing it
Oseee

Great teaching. Consider putting the screws into a small bowl as you remove them. I often take pictures before and during when I take something apart. Helps in putting it back together.
The thermal fuse was blown in my floor fan. I cleaned everything inside and outside. It's like a new fan. My favorite old man was ready to buy a new one 😊
Fans working again :) Thank you for your guidance, sir!
Well done.
Brilliant! I just fixed my fan. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
I followed this to the letter, went to all that effort, disassembled, reassembled (mine was a tad more involved than this one though) got it all back together & it worked great... for about a fortnight!
Only now on the rewatch did I realise you didn't show where to apply the oil? And THAT is the only thing I didn't do.
🤦♂️
Help me please... lol!
Apply oil to the fan motor spindle, a drop to each end
@@bootsowen There should be a felt material surrounding the bushings that needs to be saturated with light oil (3 in 1 will work). The bushings are made of sintered metal that allow oil to slowly seep through. Doing this every 2 years or so will keep the fan running for a very long time or until the switch breaks. You may need to lightly tap the shaft in several radial directions after reassembly to realign the bushings to the shaft if it doesn't spin freely, especially the front bushing which usually gets out of alignment during disassembly and reassembly. The bushings are convex on their outside diameter to allow for this.
@@nchw68THISSSS... pin this shit... this shit is what making my fan spininng slower and to a stop at some point... and had to disassemble and reassemble to make it work again... i was wondering what the weard pieces of cloth around the bushings were...
You are very entertaining and you're also the best
Cheers man, been using different oil as a substitute but wasn't last long 👍
Thank for sharing I did a few of the stuff u did to my fan but it still not work in..but there is some thing I sew u did ..I be back to my fan and try it..thank for sharing I have gain alot🎉❤💯💃👍👍👍👍👍👍
Try again
Thermal fuse is probably a blown if fan won't power up and spin fan blades. Axial fuse 122TF 115C degree cutoff of AC house power. Fans used to start fires. The Thermal fuse prevents fire.
A good lecture, thanks. However, after using the cleaner, I thought we should apply the engine oil. Any reason why you didn't use the oil
Great demo! 👍🏼
Thanks!
Wow man that shit looks cool
You forgot to oil the bushings/bearings or did I miss that part ??
yes, a drop of oil to the bushings.
I see my fan problem the coil is burn. ..so that's a very big problem garbage..u are a grate teacher 👏💯❤💃👍🌍🇬🇾
Thank you so much
No problem
U didn't use the oil
thank you brother i thought i was gonna die from heet but it was the exsact same problem
Super cool man
What about the Light Machine Oil? Why didn't you use it?
I think I did but didn't show it in the video
Did the fan metal turn pole turned freely before you started this it would’ve been nice to see if you checked it
have you got a " fan club " for this ?
Lolz. Are you my biggest fan?
Lol
Thanks
Looks like a Smc fan from 2023
Unlikely to be so new.
Mine is just locking in instead of spinning when the magnets truned on. 😢
So...i watched this video AFTER i took mine apart because it is fairly easy. After you remove the cover on the back, theres the little white box (the capacitor screws on to it) that houses the oscillating pull knob. When i went to put mine back together, everything seemed like it was okay, technically the fan does blow better lol. BUT, the knob doesnt stay in place when i pull up on it. Any ideas?
😳 OMG …not very mechanically minded here. I thought I could just spray some WD40 ! They are so cheap I’ll just buy another one (which they plan for anyway). Needed-a new simpler designed fan !
or you could try and fix it, open it up and spray in some wd40?
This is how to take the whole thing apart
Hey this may be weird bit my fan moved hy itself like no wind outside and it wasn't on and it just shook. How do I fix this ?
Hold a seance?
How you determine is not the capacitor faulty ?you didnt even messure .. so is debris that got the drive rod struck ??
I just do clean will do?
Did you use the 3 in 1 oil on something?
My fan is doing the same thing and before I take it apart, I need to know.
Thanks!!
That would do
Can you please tell me the name of the small blade on the rotor?
fan?
fin?
my pedestal fan has a new capacitor and the motor is ok but the fan is not running what is the main problem?
could be many things/
ok so you just cleaned it, no 3 in 1 oil ?
I did oil it, but somehow it got lost in the video.
@@bootsowen ahh I thought so, Thank you I followed your video and fixed our fan! Thank you so much!
Front wont come off
Never mind Oil how do I reset my fan if I had a power surge went off and then when I go to unplug it I leave it unplugged for six hours I plugged it back in all the lights go on the fan will go back-and-forth but the blades will not turn not even budge it’s like there’s no electricity getting to it orthe intellect of the computer part of this is not working right how do I reset it
Good job, but I followed exactly the way you did but still not coming on
Maybe something else is wrong?
If u have followed every steps of his, then another common issue is u need to change the capacitor.
Wd40 is oil not a cleaner .
What’s your point. It is great for cleaning. It is a water displacer. But it will act as a lubricant and a solvent so it is an excellent cleaning agent.
It’s a cleaner bud
No oil
Steel
Cant you dip the whole machine in oil instead? 😂😅
lol, why don't you make a video of it?

Sorry, lousy job no one can reassemble this after such a thing
Incompetent. You had it out you put no lubrication on the shaft/bushing pads wjay the heck? not a valid repair at all. Might as well used air.
