I noticed that the fan did not come on when I plugged the zivan charger in, so I unplugged, hit the disconnect switch, tried again and it came on. It happened again, but this time I needed to leave it unplugged for some time and then it came on. Now the fan doesn’t come on at all ( although it appears the charger is on). I went out to check the charging status and connections to the fan but it started raining so I haven’t done any testing yet. Since I noticed the fan not working and did not leave the charger plugged in without the fan running, I suspect that the charger is OK. I did see a reference to a replacement fan on another post, but would like to confirm the need before purchasing.  
I wondered if anyone has had a similar problem who could shed some light or share their experience.  
Thanks in advance.
