I have a FPX fan that does not work. I can't find schematics for the unit and am having trouble diagnosing it. I believe the fan itself is shot, but I'm sure it could be the thermo disc or fan switch. Any common problems with these??

Should be fairly easy to trace with a voltmeter. The snap switch can be temporarily jumpered to see if that is the issue. It's the most common part to fail. Here is a link to the schematics. They're on page 7.

Be safe and careful, this is line voltage.

jump the snap disc.. then try the rheostat... if neither work, then its the fan itself (or a tripped breaker)
