I need help wiring a dual slider switch for a ceiling fan and light kit. The ceiling fan and light are already wired and mounted and have been in place for more than 10 years. There was a rocker style switch which I removed without making note of how it was connected. The box I'm working in has...
Electrical isn't my thing though I know just enough to get me into trouble thinking I can do it after coming up with grand ideas.
When I bought my house, it was an older house with the typical cloth two wire wiring. There was one new 3 wire that had been ran to a jacuzzi tub in the bathroom...
Hi does anyone know what type of transformer I need for a US bought fan to run continuously without issues. V120 60Hz and 12.5A.
I believe power in UK is 230V and 50Hz.

What type of converter and of how many W should I need to operate this...
I've got a CDA ECP62SS/2 extractor fan that has gradually lost all suction until it's not even switching on anymore. Light still comes on so power is working, just no rotation in the motor at all. I've replaced the motor, capacitor, and switch, to no avail. Running out of ideas.

I've got an old furnace fan I kept the last time mine was replaced. I'd like to use it for various purposes. It has a red, black, yellow and orange wire. Also a purple going to/from I'm guessing a capacitor on the side and a green ground wire. Can I wire it up to be used on 110v ? I have...

So, trying to do this has made me start to think that maybe I'm dyslexic, lol. I'm actually not kidding. Anyway, let me give a brief rundown of what I'm trying to do and (hopefully) someone can chime in and help me with this. I do a lot of electronic repairs and I've installed switches a bunch...
Hello,
DIY enthusiast, but no real skills! Our fan oven stopped heating so I thought I would replace the heater element. When I have taken it apart, it looks as if part of the wiring may have come off. There is a clip on the right hand side with no wire coming from it. Will this be the issue...
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to have a clear view of is ok to connect a 1000W industrial fan to a 400W Tuya smart fan controller. I have some knowledge about the electricity but I'm not totally sure if it matters the switch load as long as the fan has is own capacitor.
I'm asking this as I...

Hi all,
I have a 6 year old HBG73U150/45 oven from Bosch. The ventilation fan no longer stays on to exhaust the humid air inside from inside the chamber. In the worst case, water vapour seeps out the front and then the touch screen goes berserk -- won't stop beeping :(
I took the cover off and...
