Fan Replacement and Cleaning in Selador Fixtures
I have a Seledor fixture that needs to have its fan filter cleaned out or replaced. How do I go about this?
First, we'll need to open up the fixture following the steps linked here.
Once we're inside, we'll see that the fan is secured to the back plate of the unit with four screws and nuts.
We'll want to secure the bolts from twisting with the screws while we loosen them from the front. Repeat this for all four screws.
Once the screws and nuts are removed, we should have the fan in two pieces: the fan itself from the inside and the fan filter cover from the outside.
If you're just replacing the filter, then swap out that part and screw the fan back together with the filter outside and the fan inside. Just don't forget the nuts to hold the screws for the fan.
To replace the fan itself, we'll want to unland ther 2-wire harness running back to the inside of the fixture, seen in the image below. Just remove that harness and swap the new fan, ensuring that we keep the orientation of the new fan's harness.
Once you've got your new parts secured to the fixture, you're clear to close it back up!
