- I have the touch type Omni vent roof fan, when "on" switch is touched the two end lights do a fan dance alternately flashing like mad. The book says this indicates fan blocked ?. I took the following action :- after a lot of head scratching managed to dismount fan from van, then, using a spare battery connected fan to battery, it worked perfectly even the boost function, so I left it running for about 15 mins, it was perfect, to make sure I squirted wd40 into moving parts, it has been suggested that dampness causes a problem, so, another squirt of wd40 to switch unit. Next I checked voltage at the connectors in supply wiring gave a reading of 13.7v (solar panel connected) reconnected fan (not installed) again worked perfectly. Reinstalled fan pushed spade connectors together rechecked voltage at connectors 13.7v . Now we come to the tragic bit, touched switch there was no starting it. Back to square one lights flashing . Van is only 18 months old, in keeping with many bought in van components it's a flimsy bit of kit now out of gaurentee. Please help. Regards JB
