Why won't our new ceiling fan turn?
We bought a ceiling fan with light to replace a fixture that had been there since the 40s. The light goes on but hums, the motor won't turn and hums also. Our wattage is 110... does it need 120? We can run a 120 line to it because we split our 240 line. It's in an old cabin built in1932. Another thing, when we used the breaker to install it and turned off the electricity at the wall switch as well, we still got a beep from the tester at the ceiling box but we didn't get shocked. What could that mean?
