Extractor fan issues

I have an extractor fan in my bathroom which is engaged via a wireless remote switch. Over the last few months the fan spins-up when you press the switch but doesn’t fully engage. I’ve changed the batteries in the remote switch but cannot figure out why it’s not working. The fan might be wired to the lights in the bathroom which have a dimmer function however, I always have the dimmer set to full power so do not think this is an issue. Do I need to replace the fan or is this something else? submitted by /u/Hung-kee [link] [comments]
