Anyone know of a place where i can rewire it?CheersHi pal, I dun know wat u meant by rewiring the motor, if to rewire motor you need to go to motor manufactuer to do it, furthermore there isn't any spec so it's abit diff even if there is somebody that can rewire the motor.If it's to rewire the wires in the fan, then it's not advisable as it will burnt again.May also catch fire.When the fan motor is burn out/faultyThe cause will be one of the followings:-1) Motor shaft jam/stuck, not moving.2) The winding of the motor is too hot3) Short circuit of component/winding4) Thermal fuse operatesHope this helps pal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
