Harbor Breeze Ceiling Fan Remote, Program, Dimmer and Conflict Fix 

*Love it! Keeps the room very **Fastly.Cool** . The manual states it comes with a year warranty and 5 year part replacement. The compressor makes the typical sound...small price to pay for AC.*

Thank you for this video! You helped me fix our fan and light. Wonderful help on your video! Tip: I also needed to put in a new battery into the remote because although the old battery made the remote-control light up when holding the "program - reset button", the old battery was not strong enough to sync the remote-control with the fan and light.

I have 2 fans wired to the same wall switch in my living room. When we installed them, they worked perfectly on our separate remotes. Thanks to the battery getting weak, one quit. I found another video to reset it, but it caused both fans to reset! Thanks to this video, I realized I'd have to get far enough away to only reset one. Thank you so much!

Thanks for your response back. We have tried to turn switch power off and turn switch power on and for some reason or another the fan is still on with the same speed.

Looks great, and with a brighter bulb installed that’s all the light you need. ru-vid.comUgkxWF88GpljEn-0o34vtLFazEQ5h5Q33SjU As far as ease of installation- this was my first ceiling fan and it took about 3 hours because I had no idea what I was doing and also it’s helpful to have a second set of hands and a magnetic drill bit. Works great.

Thank you! I lost power at my house due to an electrical storm and I thought the fan might have taken a power surge. It just lost its programming and this video helped me restore its control. Thanks again!

Your video inspired me....after 6 months of dealing with problems trying to get my Harbor Breeze SLINGER fan to start properly (it has a back-and-forth dance it has to do prior to getting up enough speed to start) I tried to re-set it, BUT had forgotten to turn off the power AT THE BREAKER BOX. Seeing your video reminded me of that important step and now my fan is working properly again.

You literally saved our life lol. Our daughter inadvertently reset the program and we had light but couldn’t control the fan!! It’s hot here now so the fan is a necessity not a luxury 😂

AWESOME! Thanks so much. I have a completely different remote but you're talking about reset got me to think. My remote has the reset button, didn't work with switching that off within 30 seconds but there's ALSO a "learn" button. I flipped the light switch off and then on and hit the learn button, worked right away. Never would have thought if that without you, thanks!

Your instructions on resetting this remote worked perfectly! It never occurred to me to kill power to the fan circuit so that I could reprogram this remote. THANKS!!!

Thank you so much!!! My fan just randomly dimmed one day and I thought it was a wiring issue or defective receiver. You saved me a trip back to lowes. Thanks again!

I have the ones (5 of them) with the dip switches, an older model I take it. They are the prettiest fans you can find for the price I think. Obviously the switches on the Sender (the remote) have to match the ones on the Receiver, which unfortunately in in the very top (near the ceiling) of the fan. You have to take off the collar and then find the black box with the switches on it. I've have dealt with this problem a lot, since we live in a condo building where 15 other units have the same fans (3 in each unit). If you know a little about binary math, we have 4 switches each with an on/off position. That gives you 2^4 combination, which I'll do the math for you is 16. You can probably figure out that we had lots of conflicts especially since the remotes are very powerful. A person in one unit can turn on/off the lights in a unit three doors down. So we have mapped the building and tried to coordinate everybody's fan codes to space them out as far as possible. We still have one or two problems. Here are two caveats that I ran into. One person here complained about the light not working. Obviously the first thing to check is the bulb (and they burn out often). A long halogen bulb (100w) with two end connectors on opposite side. Use a voltmeter to check for continuity or visually inspect. The glass canopy around the bulb can be hard to take off, you need to twist it to the left (counter clockwise) an inch or so and then it comes off. Add some grease like Vaseline so next time it'll be an easier task. Caveat number 2: I installed a new fan on an existing switch which happened to be a rheostat (a dimmer). Apparently the dimmer switch that was installed would not let all current through, even in the full position and you get very strange results like flickering lights and a hum from the motor, but no movement. Hope this helps some of you. --Martin

Life saver!!! Was about to go spend 150 on a new fan because I thought mine was toast.

THANK YOU! My harbor breeze fan stopped responding to remote. I even read the manual for it and tried everything they said. convinced I was going to have to replace an expensive/large fan, I decided to watch your video as a last shot. Remote is now controlling with the tips you provided. thank you thank you.

I have a different Harbor Breeze fan but your video just showed me how to dim the light. You just made my day. Thank you!!!

Thank you! I didn't know about resetting. Mine has a learn button. It reset on the 1st try.

Excellent, thanks for the help. My Harbor Breeze remote stopped working, and this fixed it right up.

Thank the lord for this video we’ve had this fan for a year now and always thought it was just super dim until I found this and figured out you can adjust it. Thank you so much

I have this exact Harbor Breeze fan remote, you'll notice there is no REVERSE button. At least for mine, there is a secret code to Reverse the fan direction, press these buttons in succession - OFF-LOW-OFF-HIGH-OFF. If you hear a relay click in the fan, you'll know it worked, and the fan blades should turn in the other direction next time it is turned on.

I have this exact remote. Electrician installed the transmitter for it on my Hampton Bay ceiling fan. I bought a second remote just like it so I have one for the living room and another for master bedroom. Getting the remote to "Learn" isn't as easy as shown in this video - at least for me it wasn't. I think the trick is to make sure you 1) turn off the power to the ceiling fan for at least 15 seconds 2) have a brand new battery in the remote 3) stand as close as possible to the ceiling fan 4) when you're repeating these steps trying to get the damn remote to work, take out the remote's battery too, so both the remote and the fan are power cycled. But I got it working - so I can testify that you can buy two remotes to work the same fan if you want. But I'm not sure if I just got lucky or not - it may be that the remote has a frequency that matches the fan and it won't always work. Good luck!

Is there any way to unlearn a ceiling fan? I have a model KUJCE10512 so it doesn’t have a reset button.

Just watch your video right now and I must say you saved me some $$. The ceiling fan in my son's room stopped working for 2 day now and I am planning to get somebody to change the fan because I thought it was broken... I re-set the controller and is now working good. Thanks for sharing this video.

Thanks a lot. I had three on a remote. Moved in and 2 already had been set up. Now I don’t have ghost lights anymore

We have the same fan and it wasn't turning on, so we reset the circuit and it worked. Not related to a conflict fix but some comments suggest that they had the same problem :) Just a tip :)

mine doesn't have a "reset" switch?! it's numbered 1 2 3 4, help!!!

Thanks for your quick reply. I was trying to avoid replacing the receiver as the fan that is installed is in a vaulted ceiling and quite high. However you are probably correct. It would probably be best to replace the receiver. I have searched and scoured the internet for the remote for that particular fan model however I have had no success. Once again thanks for your quick reply.

THANK YOU! Worked just like you said.

Thank you for sharing . The problem was the dimmer. Made my day !!

Great video! Don’t usually comment but saw the dislikes and thought that it was unjustified. You helped me out! Thanks!

Great info, new fans work the same with out the reset button. Dimmer , wtf, did not know that.

Thanks! Now our fan is working. The button on this model is labeled "learn."

I have two fans that were sharing the same frequency and your instructions worked for me. I cut the breaker off at the downstairs fan, and then I switched one of the switches in the remote to the upstairs fan. I then programmed the remote just as you instructed. Thanks much!

I got it working again! thank you for these instructions.

I have a Harbor Breeze fan with a remote that does not have the dip switches. I bought what I thought was a replacement, however the replacements have dip switches. For the life of me I can't find anything that will tell me what I need to set the remote to in order for it to function. Any idea? Thanks for being so responsive on this thread! This is great.

I have same remote , for harbor breeze fan.Lately the light went on & off. I changed the battery & the fan worked then went off & the remote blue light at the bottom stays on. I waited a couple of hours & light went on & off without me pressing the light button. I finally tried again the next dat & got the fan going then immidiatley put the remote in another room.2 days later the fan went off & same strange things started with the blue remote light staying on & fan not then light going on & off. It's almost as if the remote is possessed lol but I'm open to any help. Btw, I don't see the reset button next to the 4 switches. Thanks

Thanks so much you saved me a trip to lowes!

This video was very helpful, you saved at least hundred bucks. Thanks a ton!

Really appreciate you for this. I originally took apart the fan trying to locate the 4 code frequency switch codes in the fan...smh On the newer model all you need to do is switch the 4 switch code to a different code in the remote and pres learn when you power the fam on via the wall switch... #DONE

Thanks. So helpful. Worked like a charm!

thanks a lot.....my fan is operating properly!

What if your remote doesn't have the reset button? Mine has a learn "hole" but no button beneath it.

My god, I love the internet so much. THANK YOU FOR THIS.

Super helpful! Hubby had to eat crow after telling me there was no dimmer function.

Mime is the T model and has the learn button in the hole. Took several tries but finally started working. The light still does not work 🤔

thank you! pushing the "learn" button got it started right up!

My remote doesn't have a reset button

This video saved my life. Thank you.

Hello, I have done the reset. The light blinks. I am able to turn the light on, off, and even dim. I hit the fan speed that I want, the fan beeps, and then nothing happens. advice?

Oh, and of course if you've had them for a while, you'll need to replace the battery (23a 12v) about once a year, depending on your usage it of course.

TTTTTHHHHHAAAANNNNKKKKKKKKK YYYYOOOOUUUUUUUUU for the reset hint!!!!!!!

I have one with out a reset button and the dimmer switch is broke and won turn on for me when it lights up blue....can I tear into this remote to clean the contacts??😊

The remote I have has 4 switches inside it. The first one is on numbered 1, and the others are marked 2-4. It does not have a reset button as displayed in the video. Maybe I have an older model fan 00729? I was wondering if shutting the #1 switch off and back on that it might reset. Can you advise?

Help.. my lights wont turn off with the remote.. the fan and fan speed buttons work properly.

we have four calypso fans and they may have a conflict going on too. Three of the four work great but one of them will only achieve high speed. Like the HUNTER the fan is controlled by a seperate remote for each fan in each room with no wall or pull chain as a backup. Will the rest of the remote affect the working of the other three fans.

What is the actual part number for this particular Harbor Breeze Fan Remote? I need this one and the only ones I find have the dip switch frequency setting option. Thank you in advance!

Thanks, I was about to take the fan back, it lost the programming to the remote.

thanks for whatever reason our brand new ceiling fan stop working. changed batteries and still remote would not give. til I saw video turned off switch then pressed learn on remote. thanks...

How to tell if the remote is fried? My kids have dropped the remote several times. The light doesn’t work anymore... broken bulb? The blue light in the remote. Also my light button doesn’t press in anymore. I tried ordering a replacement remote but the wrong one came so I just bit the bullet and got a universal one from Lowe’s. But still can’t figure out how to wire since my unit has pink and purple and green and blue and black and brown wires!! Any help is appreciated.

It worked!!! Thanks!!!

My light stopped working a year ago. This year, the fan is not working at all. My remote does not have a learn or reset button. Inside the remote, there is a 4-button "system" that is supposedly a code that is set to match a code inside the transmitter, which is located in the upper base of the fan. I cannot access that transmitter myself. Is there a way to troubleshoot this problem?

Hi I have almost the same remote but instead of the button I have with the numbers 1 2 3 4 in the top they say on the problem is did the remote go in the washer and in the dryer and then I changed the battery and they work once but there's not working anymore and it's already complete dry

You do not need to walk away from the fans when you have multiples... The right way to do it, is to use unique combinations on each remote, then ONLY turn on the fan you want to program, once a fan is paired with a remote, it won't respond to another remote. If your fans are behind wall switches, then just turn all switches off except for the one you want to program and repeat for every fan/remote pair. If your fans are directly connected to the electric wires, then program/pair each fan immediately immediately after it is plugged into the circuit.

Bought a harbor breeze fan and installed it today. The issue is that it does not undim. I think it’s defective, might return it if I can’t find a solution soon

We have the Harbor View Fan and our problem relates to the remote. The light on the remote never dims. As a result the battery runs out quickly. Any idea on how to have the remote light turn off? Thank you!

I did the reset twice, but the same problem is still there. The fan no longer spins. The light button AND the fan speed buttons are ALL making the light go on and off.

My remote does not have a reset. It has l,2,3,4 toggle switches. Any suggestions?

What’s the model of this fan? I have the same one and can’t open the panel to replace the light bulb. Thank you in advance.

Worked perfect !! Thanks for sharing !!

Oh you are my angel I just wanted the light dimmed.

I have been trying to get my remote to reprogram with no luck. I have tried all of the suggestions below with no success. You see my issue is i cannot get the Fan Light to respond to the remote. The fan does for all the speeds. But i cannot get the fan to turn off using the remote. I turn off from the light switch. and when i turn the light switch back on the fan light is on. You have any ideas for me. I have replace the battery. and tried re--programing the remote which do not re-program, Turn off the breaker, turned off the switch. flushed the remote buttons. turned the breaker on, turn the light switch on, light on fan still comes on. Any suggestions?

How do I reset a fan that I didn't install? I just moved into a house and one remote works all three

@ZipZapDIY sorry to bother you...but I might need your advice. It seems that we install 4 fans using factory frequency, same for the 4. Now we have the issue that if we want to turn on the lights on one of the rooms, it will turn on all others if switches are on. Is there anyway I can change the frequency without removing the fan from ceiling? I know the receiver is there but I don't want to remove all fans again. Any suggestions?

I have a model L05BN and there are dip switches in the remote and no reset button that I see. Do you know where the dip switches are in the fan itself? I removed the light kit and do not see it.

My fan is from 2008, so my remote has the 4 switches but no reset or learn button so how do I reset my remote?

Do you know how to remove the remote receiver/controller from this exact fan? There is no visible screws or tabs to work with. Is it connected from underneath? I suspect it is the receiver from the on-line research I have done. Thank you.

I have two harbor breeze fans w/dip switch remotes and westinghouse lighting, the two rooms are separated by about 30 ft. When we turn on the fan in one room the other one makes a loud buzzing noise when not turned on. any suggestions?

Can anyone help. My remote when I dim the light, the blades slow down. When it's on full light, the blades speed up to high. So not only is it too bright but too windy! I keep playing with the remote as it's out of wack but nothing is working right. I don't have a reset button.

So helpful. Thank you.

Here's a good one for you....... I have a Harbor Breeze fan with the remote that looks identical to the video. We had a power failure last when power came back the fan was on the fastest speed and would not respond to the remote. I can only shut it off at the breaker box. I installed a new battery - it didn't help. So I took off the back of the remote - it has only the 4 position dip switch, no "learn" or "reset" switches - none. What do you suggest? It's Ok I'll wait. I've got the time.

My remote has the learn button and I've went through the process several times. last abou 5 minutes, light blinks and remote stops working all together. Won't turn off fan or lights until go back through the 'learn' process. Then, again, only last for a few minutes. Any idea what might be causing it not to hold the signal?

Super helpful, thank you!

When you turn the power on withing the first 30 seconds hit the reset button. Do you mean when I hit a button on the remote to turn the power on? The fan is wired hot with no other switch besides the breaker.

I have A Harbor Breeze remote (KUJCE9805) that was programmed to the wrong fan in a nearby room. Your video explains how this happens, but does not go into enough detail about how to reset the remote so that it no longer communicates with the undesired fan.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Do you happen to have the manual for this particular fan? I have this fan and the light burned out, but I don't know how to change it. It's LP8071 but I can't find it online and Lowe's no longer sells it.

I have this fan same remote. Problem is the fan is just set to 1 speed. And remote won't change it. Please help..thanks in advance

Just installed new mazon fan , remote stopped working but its not like any I have seen. there is no dip switch or learn button .I followed steps in manual to reconnect many times with no results. Any ideas?

Can you reverse with the remote?

I have this exact fan. What is the model?

One of my remotes does not have a button how do you program that

This worked for me. Thanks!

Where is the website for these people. My remote has five dip switches.

I recently moved into a new home with a H.B. Exeter ceiling fan with a missing remote. I believe this fan is older (maybe 6 or 8 years). I bought the same remote kit you have in your video. I tried everything you suggested, but the fan would not rerspond. The remote kit I bought came with a new reciever. Do you think the fan has one with DIP switches and this newer remote is incompatible?

Anyone run into the blue light on the fan failing to turn off? None of my buttons are depressed and it functions normally.

Is there a switch on the remote that changes the direction of the fan?

my light burnt out so we switched the bulb and now the light is on but It won't work to dim it. I tried doing the reset too

Just curious - what if my remote doesn't have a reset button - the front looks similar to yours, but the back doesn't have a reset button like yours. There are four little sliding switches on a circuit board-type board that says "On" above switches 1 & 2, and "Dip" above switches 3 & 4

I have done all this video suggests. However, I have no reset button. I have 1 2 3 4 and I have a learn. I have pushed all. Yes, changed batteries. Pleas help. Pam E

Thank you so much for posting this, you are a lifesaver!
