Proabably it is a fuse,it might have gone open circuit.You can overwrite the fuse and test the fan.Before that you must check that motor shaft is free not jammed.Also checked that a/c motor coil resistance ,it should not read zero ohms which indicate a shorted winding.Also checked the startup
capacitor.

Looks like thermal cut out as the cylinder bit looks like a thermistor.
could try google if a number on it.

Recently somehow my room fan stopped working for no reason. So i opened it up and found this weird looking fuse like broken part:



This is the whole fan.



This is the thing thts broken. Notice tht the circuit is open. And there is some sort of cylinder like thing in the middle. Which i think is a fuse.



This is the cylinder thing up close.

Is this what i think it is? a fuse?

And one more thing, these motors are made to run directly on ac current from the wall socket rite? which in my case is 220v. Coz i dont see any sort of transformer in it. Rolling Eyes

If u need more information lemme knw. thnx for ur time.
