Fan had oil when removed from ceiling. A fair amount poured out when fan was on its side. Fan had not run for 5 or more years and was difficult to service or remove. Known to have a bad non clicking switch and finally a broken chain. However, I believe the fan failed before the switch. I was hoping someone could confirm that reverse switch powered the starter coil and that blue and brown should show voltage to ground.

Replaced switch,capacitor and reverse switch. Fan hums on one speed but will not turn. Ohm meter reads 80,60 and 20 on red yellow and grey. Get no reading on blue and brown. Same at plastic connector. Am I correct that start coil is bad? No obvious burns or breaks. Are directions for stator rewinding available? Is there a source for replacement stators?

Have replaced switch,reverse switch and capacitor. Fan hums on one speed. Ohm meter reads approximately 80,60 and 20 on red ,yellow and grey but I get no reading on blue and brown with any wire. Same at connector in top of housing. Am I correct in believing that the starter coil is bad? Are there instructions for rewinding the stator? Is there a source for replacement stators? Thanks, Jim
