Vornado 660: Fan turns on but blades won’t spin

Mon, 28 Jul 2025 18:01:56 -0700

My Vornado fan turns on but the blades won’t spin unless I spray lubricant on the shaft underneath the blades. I’ve had to do this once a week for a few months now but recently I’m having to do this every other day now. It’s an expensive fan and I’m a novice at electrical repairs, is this something that I can fix with a part replacement and simple troubleshooting or is my fan completely done functioning?

Ionic Breeze: My ionic breeze makes a constant clicking noise t.

Thu, 24 Jul 2025 01:04:05 -0700

The rapid clicking noise started after a routine cleaning. I always air dry for 24hrs after a cleaning so I know it wasn't a moisture problem. I cleaned it again, rinsed thoroughly, still clicking. I run it anyway but am concerned that the noise indicates a problem.

Lasko Fan Model W09560: 20 in Box fan has secondary hum

Wed, 18 Jun 2025 13:51:44 -0700

Most fans have a secondary hum aside from the normal wooshing sound of the fan blades. What can be done to get rid of hum? Changing speed only makes it louder or subdued. This is not my exact Lasko fan These are the 20 in window kind. Before mentioning cleaning this is a problem with a brand new one I just took out of the box.

I thought it might be some small modification of the blades (?)
