i let it sit for few minutes, then i installed it. turn switch on, no more loud noises!
few hours passed by bathroom fan is working, i go in to do number 2...after few seconds.
POP POP POP reached over to turn switch off. smell of burn took over bathroom.
so disappointing. Later at night i went back to bathroom and removed fan. checked all wire connections and maybe WD40 shorted it out motor.


2nd attempt- order replacement for fan motor and arrived yesterday.
removed old fan, install new on bracket and all working 100%


i dont mind these minor repairs that i can manage but i pray they stay this small lol
I replaced mine in my master bath two weeks ago. You went the long route sir. I went to the store and just bought a new unit. I have to say I was surprised at how expensive some where.....and of course bluetooth is to anything with power, what 20" rims were in the 90's; it goes on everything. I bought a 60 CFM fan/light combo that still cost almost $100 and that was the cheap one. Damn near tore my drywall out of the ceiling before I realized the insulation was covering the two nails in the truss. My home repair guardian angel and myself ->

I will say that with my bathroom being so small with 60 CFM, it damn near creates a vacuum in there. I'm going to have to secure my towels.
