There are a number of potential reasons for this problem including mechanical as well as electrical.
It is at least 3 years old now and used to work fine at one time.
Either a bad capacitor or damaged winding.
Ceiling vans have very little torque and almost any problem may cause the fan to run slowly.
It s the only thing that cools the room at the bottom and keeps the air circulating inside an unventilated area.
Loss of bearing lubrication and poor blade balance.
Two of these issues are mechanical.
It s still not the time to call a technician though.
The run capacitor stores charge and delays the current momentarily which gives the fan rotor time to turn and orient itself so that the induced magnetic force is effective.
The other two are electrical.
Check with the electric switch to which the ceiling fan is connected because at times that switch creates the hum resonance when the fan is in working state.
