    Ceiling fan led lights are flickering/not working

    I bought a ceiling fan with LED lights. After some time the led lights started flashing when I put them on. Now it does not even jump up anymore, only jumps up very weakly or flickers very loudly. The fan function works fine though. How can I fix this?

    Which make of fan is this

    Anyone know what make fan this is, its in a retirement home kitchen. The apartment we were working in has had a fire so our fan was a melted blob of plastic, this picture is from an vacant apartment. Looking at the (melted) wiring I think it might be a trickle fan with a boost switch.
