I have checked a lot of sites on how to remove the ceiling fan. I have also followed a number of give instructions. I did all the need steps and have reached a dead end the ceiling fan wont come off. I am attaching images of where I have reached, any help would be great, before I break it off. - Thanks
I have removed/pulled down the light fixture. I don't see any pins, neither is the motor lifting up the shaft. But I do see 3 screws on the top side of motor casing, hard to reach.
Stan thats what it looks like to me also. I think those look a little big for just bezel screws but its hard to tell from the pic. I think I would try gently pulling down and twisting slightly at the same time maybe the housing is wedged on the threads of those studs. Anyway guess well wait to hear back from RM08
I 100% guarantee that those studs are the housing mounting studs. With the nuts removed the whole thing will come down.
Why it doesn't for you is a mystery.
Did you try and get those lock washers off? It looks as if they might be wedged on there. Try to pry off the washers and see what happens.
Great! I removed the washers using a chisel and down came the whole thing. Stanfortyman, ac101, donf and handyman2007 - Thank you so much for your patience, advice and sharing of knowledge. I will now be installing a new fan and I hope it wont be as difficult. Once again, much appreciate your help.
