Bathroom Extractor Fan Not Working. Please ensure you use certified voltage testers and isolate any circuit you work. Although a new motor costs about the same as a new fan a bathroom vent fan motor replacement saves time and trouble.

Consequently similar to vacuum cleaners dust and dirt can collect on the fans very easily. I didnt pay any attention because I rarely used it. The switched live SL only becomes live when the bathroom light is switched on this triggers the fan to start working.
If the fan is in a zone above bath or shower it will need to be low voltage and there will be a transformer somewhere this may of failed.

If the fan really is not effective then you need to look at the length of any duct bends or other choke points in the duct or outlet and type of fan. If it doesnt there might be a blockage in the duct connecting to the exhaust fan.
