Create a Breeze fan

I have the fan in my bathroom and I went to turn it on and it didn't come on I had the lid up and both switches turn on and also check the fuse in it. Is it possible that its to cold out side

Nope that wouldn't be it. Did you check the fuse at the distribution box? You can pull the trim ring and access the wiring and check the voltage there. Not much to go wrong with that fan.

Agree with garbonz. I don't believe that there is a thermostatically controlled switch in those bathroom fans. They are the simplest Create a Breeze fans in the model lineup.

Both?

I would be inclined to check the switch/s for a loose wire.

Check for a sticking plunger switch on top of the fan housing and under the lid. Spray with WD40.

Sorry to hijack, but I have a question....any way to redirect the air flow on those things (suck air in instead of out)? Thanks!

Reverse the polarity of the cables. That is what I did with mine

You can get a three-position switch to make it easy.

I have to have the light switch on in my bathroom to run the fan.

I would rather do that so it would work either way.

You can also just install a dpdt switch on it.
