    Harbor Breeze ceiling fan - now won't start!
    Hello all. This is a great forum. I have a Harbor Breeze Triton ceiling fan which has been working fine for about a year. Now, the light goes on no problem, but the fan won't run. No noise... just won't run. Could this be a problem with the starting capacitor? If so, any ideas as to where to get a replacement ( it's a 4mfd)?

    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the reply. I did check that section but it did not help. The remote works because it can turn the light on and off. The wires are connected properly because the fan was working just fine for a year. SO now I have the lights working but nothing from the fan. No noise and no movement. Nothing seems burned and there is no odor of burnt insulation or anything. Do you have any ideas as to what might be the problem?
    Thanks!

    You didn't say it was a remote fan. Here's another guide to start with:
