KDK 16" ORBITAL FAN, M40RS
Hi all,
I have the above celing fan at home. It is more than 5 years.
It is controlled by a 3-speed regulator.
Of late, only at speed 3 will it move.
I am guessing the regulator might be d problem.
Can I seek help from kakis here what could b d problem?
I have not opened up the regulator b4.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
P/s: or should I replace the whole fan with a new set instead?
Bypass the regulator then turn it on. If the fan is okay it should start spinning at maximum speed. Then you ascertain its the regulator at fault and just replace that.
Thanks!
Confirmed that the fan is still ok.
Regulator problem then.
But are regulators easily available out there?
Sim Lim sells them?
hey all,
i'm gonna purchase a set of ceiling fans, and learnt from this thread that dc fans aren't that lasting and the LED will 'die' off over time.
so if i were to get AC fans, i need to have track lights around it to ensure that the room is lighted up?
any other ways besides this?
(my living room have false ceilings with downlight, so no issue there, just that the rooms how to go about it)
Fan in the middle with led surface panel light on either side. Or you can put tube lights on the wall

Can u show me some pics cause a bit hard for me to visualize
Means we put those square and round led light at the side of the room ?
Can be fixed by changing the capacitor

Hi all, anyone knows why my DC kdk 60inch ceiling fan requires push start before it will operate normally? 2 out of 10 times it will operate ok without pushing. It is about 3 or 4 years old.
Weak capacitor for motor start up. Time to have new capacitor.

But mine is a dc. Understand that it has no capacitor?
