Vent-Axia VASF100T

[Paul Harrison]

Hello

I am trying to install a new bathroom fan. It’s a Vent-Axia VASF100T which is a timed fan requiring live, switched live and neutral connections. I ran a second live wire and can get the fan running. My problem is it doesn’t stop. I want to be sure I’ve wired it correctly before I try to take it back with a fault timer. Can anyone give me any ideas on how to check the timer. I have a multimeter and am reasonably competent

Thanks
Paul

Take pics of the connections you have made at the fan ,indicating which is the permanent live and switched live and post here please.

You've either taken the permanent live from the light instead of switched, or if you haven't adjusted the timer, these are set to 15 minutes from the factory which is quite long.

Does the fan come on with the light, or does it start up as soon as power is restored?

I ran a second live wire and can get the fan running. My problem is it doesn’t stop.

What exactly do you mean by that?

If you just connected a second live wire to the switched live terminal - to see if it works - then of course it will not stop until you disconnect it and wait for the timer to run.
