The problem was that it didn't have enough power to spin. So, without doing any kind of test, I bought a new capacitor, changed it and it worked perfectly, but it only lasted about 5 hours. #### Today I changed it for another capacitor and it didn't work, I performed different types of tests such as: I tested that the cable transmits electricity to the motor, that the speed selector is working, etc. I came to the conclusion that there was some type of problem in the winding. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmdQmmk36yCtBT99mzywmCFTk9bjdEqCNpuePupr6cAPXN/telegram_cloud_photo_size_1_4907065853430837131_y.jpg) #### Then, I remembered that I had another fan without a base, I set about inventing some sort of connector or graft to attach the fan to the mast of the non-working fan. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmP6h8f8bijjxoUFw4H1GJvS5z35BQdBhsh27tLmdoGMs9/telegram_cloud_photo_size_1_4907065853430837125_y.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmfJJBcTQfKyswGA6cELo1EkQjXpM46Ga9Jrz1kRcWdS1Z/telegram_cloud_photo_size_1_4907065853430837127_y.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmaKvbaVFVK6te65SzvYwKr4k6hEtQoXqnxf3mE7yJ2nor/telegram_cloud_photo_size_1_4907065853430837129_y.jpg)
