I noticed over the weekend that the fan on my light was not working so I turned it off. I emailed EcoTech support on Sun and today, sat on hold on their support line for @1hr, left a voice message this morning and still no reply. I have a tank full of coral and need to get a light back on. Is there anywhere that I can get a replacement?
 
Changing a fan on a Gen1 is something you could do yourself if needs be. Does your local stockist hold Ecotech spares? I know I am in the UK but I have two lfs that hold those types of spares.. If you haven't already check out the YouTube videos for changing a fan... Good Luck I hope they get back to you soon.
 
If you can get them on the phone they will be able to take care of it. They have had some bad weather, but still no excuse. I don't think this is a very large company. A couple of geniuses overwhelmed by simpler things in life. It appears its a nine to five company with very little backup. They always come through. I know it's hard if you have to work or have responsibilities to be spending a lot of time on the phone. I've left numerous emails and phone messages and always have to follow up with a call back. They are located in PA so same time zone. I would call about 9:30 AM. Also have you cleaned the vents on the light. The fans are so efficient, they will collect dust. If the temp overheats the light shuts down. Does the fan start when first plugged in? Then while plugged in, the fan stops? If the light stays on. It's not overheating. Good Luck !!!!
