Hi Frank, First of all, check if the fan's isolator hasn't been switched off (if there is an isolator mounted onto the bathroom's wall). If the isolator is switched on or there's no isolator then the motor of the fan is dead or stuck. Regards,

Hi Frank I take it they both used to come on with the same switch? Unless you are able to test the fan to see if power is getting to it you will need to get an electrician to have a look at it for you Thanks Russ
