I bought this for a 12v powered fan but the fan only stays on when the knob is at it's highest setting, anything lower and it turns off. why no work?

it would have to be a small 12 v fan, with low rpm. I bought this for a 30 rpm motor, which turn very slow at high speed, if its a cooling fan, it will not work for you, as cooling fans turn at very high rpm. I suggest you get the specs of the fan, before buying a condroller.

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

Not sure if that is same model as mine. My fan is old and the remote will only turn fan on high and light must be on also. Fan switch work light and vise versa.

In my case the fan was only running on one speed but the light worked. I took it apart and found this part had a burnt spot. I replaced it and everything has worked fine. Good luck

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.

Yes, My ceiling fan would not turn off but my light would. now that I had the 4/4/2.5uf capacitor installed itnow my fan will turn off.

I run a car stereo setup off of mine in the man cave. My fan runs all the time. But I just put a 12v fan controller on it and a bigger fan. Fixed the problem if you're a DIY'er

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!

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.

I would look at the amp rating, but any DC power supply at 5V can run this fan. Just test it with old power adopters but make sure to read voltage on the back.

It sounds like you have received a broken unit. The left button should turn the large center fan on ( it does on mine). I have had mine for about 5 or 6 months and it works just fine. I was waiting a little longer before i wrote my opinion on this product,for me its: so far so good.

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.

Is the fan the same fan you purchased with the original controller?? If so you shouldn't have to re-progam the control. When we got our replacement control we put in new batteries and it worked right away. If its a different fan then the original you should probably contact the manufactuer of the fan for help. I don't remember putting in any code???

Try flipping the fan over or reversing the positive and negative wires (leave the ground wire as is). Hope this may work...

If the capacitor on your fan looks like this one (2 wires on one side, 3 wires on the other side), it probably will fix your fan. When I first noticed my fan wasn't working correctly, one of the three speeds (I don't remember which) didn't work. Eventually another didn't work. Also, there was a very distinct odor. Replaced the original capacitor with this one & it's been working perfectly ever since.

mine is dc. I had battery drain problem. Wired it from a toggle switch to disconnect neg. batt cable. only energised with engine running problem solved. I don't know why it would't work for a fan

The controller is a adjustable unit. You just dial back on the voltage for that particular fan until it's like 0.0 but most fans usually require more than 5V to operate at all so anything below will most likely shut them down.
