Quick answer (read this first)

If your fan doesn’t respond to the regulator, the most common causes are:

  • a loose connection behind the switchboard,
  • a burnt regulator (common with low-quality parts / voltage fluctuation),
  • a weak fan capacitor (fan runs slow or only works on full).

If you smell burning, see sparks, or your MCB trips: stop and call an electrician.

Safety first

  1. Switch OFF the fan and turn OFF the MCB for that circuit.
  2. Confirm power is off with a tester.
  3. Don’t touch bare wires with wet hands.

Step-by-step

  1. Check the switchboard for loose terminals.
  2. If the knob feels burnt/melted, replace the regulator.
  3. If the fan is slow even on max, suspect the capacitor.
