Some things to eliminate....( 1 ) to check the wall switch, is there a light on the fan that comes on ? If so, then you are getting power up to the fixture. So if the light works, but not the fan, problem is most lilkely internal. This of course, also verifies the breaker is allowing power through. ( 2 ) Are there different speed settings, changed by a small pull chain ? If so, possibly this may be starting to go. Try another speed, and see if this eliminates the problem. ( 3 ) As far as I know, they have no brushes in the motors, at least not in any that I have seen. ( 4 ) Verify all wire connectors by........holding the wire connector and pulling on each lead in that connector. Sometimes things look to be fine, but one wire will pull out easily. ( 5 ) When the fan will not go, give it a little push, and see if it starts up.............possibly the bearings . bushings may be starting to go ?? I dont know what the cost of a new fan would be.......but $110 should get you a pretty nice fan, with a warranty to boot. What warranty are they giving on the fan repair ? Is it a complete overhaul, and warranty, or a one part warranty ? If only the replaced item is warrantied, I would say file it..........under G.......for GARBAGE. Good Luck !!
