Fan "wiggling" We had a fan working fine in one home, sold that home and took the fan; had it installed at new home, now it "jerks" back and forth on medium speed, and it is downright scary on high speed! can't use on anything but "low". Robert

Could be the water pump leaking.

Make sure the toggle switch (if you have one)inside the transmitter is in the correct position for the type of bulb. Could need a new receiver. Was this one of the low-end fans sold in Home depot Or Lowes? Remember, you get what you pay for!

Hello, there should 4 bolts and nuts hold this clutch fan on the water pump flange.. Check the clutch fan an see if the clutch is worn out. If the fan turn fast and if it wiggles back and forth it needs to be replaced.. GB....stewbison

Hampton Bay is an exclusive brand of Home Depot. They would be the ones to help you with that. BUT .. from my experience I would say that the cost and trouble of getting and replacing the motor in that fan would be easilly rivalled by the cost and ease of buying and installing a new fan all together.

Very interesting problem! But easy to fix. It's not a defective switch, just a minor wiring error, which would be very hard to solve via back and forth text. So, instead of trying to figure out exactly which wires and terminals to swap at the new switch, it would be much easier to simply swap the light and fan wires at the ceiling fixture, I hope this is helpful. Good luck, Al Kupchella

needs a tuneup depending on year there are egr valve and several other valves that could cause it to run bad/. As for the fan hitting the fan shroud try wiggling the fan back and forth to see it its loose, if it is watch to see what is wiggling, the water pump shaft or the fan blade device that spins free so that it's not making so much noise i forget the name at the moment but most cars have them and it fits on the water pump and the, oh yes fan clutch. If that is ok then the rear transmission mount may be bad or it is common that the fan shrouds come loose on the bottom.

Sounds to me like you could have a couple of possible problems.

First and most importantly would be to make sure that your cpu fan is clean and running. This is the fan that is located on the large heat sink on the mother board. A lot of times, especially on older systems, this fan and heatsink will get covered with dust and almost always cause an overtemp fault. Usually blowing this out with electronics cleaner will rectify this but if it has been like that for a while you may need to replace the cpu fan. Most electronics stores will sell these fairly cheap.

Your other problem may be that you need to purchase another case fan to cool the cpu more effectively. Generally though most premade systems come with enough fans.

Also you may need a new fan for the one that he replaced. It sounds to me like you may have a bad connector either on the replacement fan or the power supply wire. A real easy way to tell is to wiggle the wires a little bit. If your fan speed fluctuates odds are you've got a loose connection. It can appear to be fine but sometimes those wires on the molex connectors come loose and make don't make good contact. When that happens it may work fine for a few minutes, but then the first time that you get vibrations it stops working.

Try wiggling light switch side to side kinda hard, (the light switch is the one on the left) it should come on, showing you its a bad lt. switch.if that fails install 1 new 40watt,(long) appliance bulb. but it is going to be the switch or the bulb considering there wasn't any wiring work done on unit. part# for the light switch is 3060140 make sure the back of the switch is white not black (black is a fan switch) Good Luck !!!

the original connector was not assembled properly. If the original was a twist on type, then unscrew it. Otherwise, remove the connector by cutting it off with cutting pliers. Now strip back insulation from the 2 wires about 1/2 inch and then twist the 2 together. now screw on a wire connector (tightly) that you must purchase (sorry) in an electrical hardware store. Finally, wrap electrical tape around both the new connector and wires to prevent unraveling.

My system does the same thing with F61 displaying for 5 seconds before shutting off. I took the fan in the rear off, and noticed that it came on to the touch but didnt stay on continuously. However, when it came on It started performing normally. So, I also noticed that the insides where the fan was located became warm when no air was blowing on it. System will shut off to protect itself. Dont know how to get fan off yet. But fan for my model is sold on Panosonic Website. Not very expensive if you know how to install. Around $17.00 for fan itself. If someone knows how to install , please send message.
