Two of these issues are mechanical.
Ceiling fan running slow on high.
Either a bad capacitor or damaged winding.
It now seems as though the highest setting is not much different then the middle setting.
Ceiling fans that operate at speeds slower than normal can have one of four problems.
The speed was noticeable and the air movement was as well.
Watch this video as this will help you troubleshoot and repair it under 10.
If certain ceiling fan speeds are not working there are a few things that could be the problem.
Loss of bearing lubrication and poor blade balance.
For a hampton bay fan 4 wire capacitor 3 speed switch.
Sometimes either or both the switch and capacitor fail.
All ceiling mounts have copper black white and red wires coming from them and are connected to a two way switch on the wall one controls fan speed the other the light.
We have owned a minka aire ceiling fan for about 4 years and it has been great overall.
Turning the knob to high or medium did nothing.
Ceiling fan speed problem the torque to drive the motor of your electric fan comes from the magnetic field induced in the motor coils when electricity passes through the coils.
Is your fan running slow.
The switch replacement is below.
New ceiling fan runs slow even on highest setting our home is a new build and was pre wired for ceiling fans.
Running for 24hrs a day.
Essentially we ll use process of elimination to get to the root of the problem.
The ceiling fan would turn on by using the wall switch but it would only work on one speed low speed.
Because it occurred within a few months of the remodel and because our house s wiring has always been a little bit flakey anyway i figured that there must be some sort of electrical problem.
The other two are electrical.
The first thing to try is to clean and lubricate.
