    I have a couple of these in sun room, not the exact same as these but very similar


    https://www.universal-lighting.co.uk/products/fantasia-balaire-combi-42-inch-ceiling-fan-light-kit-polished-brass/


    So you have two pull strings, one to turn on/off lights and one to turn on/off fan


    The ligth switch one, if you turn off light, then you might have to pull it 10 times before it will turn on the light. WHen oyou pull to turn on the light it will flick the bulb as it going on, make a click and then turn off


    Any idea if easy fix? or what I would need to fix it

    Anything pull-cord usually gives trouble

    Might be possible to bypass it and use wallswitch to control light

    Have wall switch, which turns on/off but then you can turn off at the light

    Kids always messaging with the pull switch

    Also light has fan, its in sunroom....so when you want to turn on the fan during the day you will end up turning on light as well]

    I wonder is it easy to fix?
