Hello, While cleaning my fan (Homedics AR-NC01GY Breathe Air Cleaner With Nano Coil) I broke one of the 4 fans it comes with… Can anyone please suggest a good replacement fan for this fan… It comes with 4 Computer Fan-sized fans… The original fan has the following markings. - Malata D12025S24 DC 24V Made in China. What have I tried: I tried the following and the original fans would rotate, but not the new replaced one. What am I doing wrong. WINSINN 120mm Fan 24V Dual Ball Bearing Brushless 12025 120x25mm for Cooling PC Computer Case CPU Coolers Radiators - 2Pin https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XFZ… Thank you very much in advance.
Hi, How many wires are connected to the original fan, 2, 3 or 4? If the original has more than two wires then the fan control circuit uses the other one or two wires (depending on how many) to control the fan. One would be for a temperature sensor and the other would be a rpm sensor. Either or both are mounted in the fan itself. If the control circuit doesn’t detect either (or both) then most probably it won’t supply power to the fan You may have to try something like this. (if 4 wire) Just ensure that the wires if they’re the same colours as the original fan wires go to the same pin connections. If the original fan is only a 2 wire fan, then check if the replacement fan is OK by testing it with an Ohmmeter to ensure that there is continuity through the fan motor.
