Thanks for your help...
I'm simply buying a fan from Amazon...from what I researched this is a common internal problem (second stage unit) not meant to be repaired.
I did go to a electrical unit repair shop...guy says there's nothing that can be done.
The code 279D, points to the second stage unit burning out ?
It's not something that's sold.
However, in my research this unit is also on Volvo cars and Ford cars...i stopped my efforts at that point.
So i now have 3 good looking fans but faulty with the internal second stage unit going kaput...when i have the time i may investigate repairs if possible.
