Any clever buffs out there who can advice me what can be wrong with my ceiling fan with lights attached which has just slowly stopped oscillating. The fuse is ok I think.! No crackling noise of any kind.Mind you it’s 11 years old but not used much only when we are here. Do I need the experts to have a look at it? If so any good recommendations would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks. S

Very helpful member
It is my guess that after 11years the motor and bearings have become clogged with carp, If you are ok with simple DIY then take it down take it apart and give it a good clean with a small brush,if you can go to a garage and blow it all over with an airline that should do the trick(usual caveats about leccy/ladders etc).
As for a tradesman,it may be a better route to get a new 1(fan, not tradesman) and get that fitted
