dude I have had a broken fan for six months and two electricians out. no one thought of the reset. I feel like a shmuck right now. thanks for the tip. fan works fine now
Thanks for the tip, after doing what’s instructed I still had one fan still responding to the other remote. After a lot of research I found that this type of remote pairs and unpairs. If the pairing cycle ends with lights on it paired if it ends with the light off unpaired. So I unpaired the remote from the fan that I did not wanted to control.
After more than 12 times of pairing it still didn't work for me until I saw your comment about unpairing! I knew I could find a solution in the comments. Thank you both!!!❤❤
This worked for me. Just unpaired each light by doing the sync when the fan was on but the light was off. Double beep. And then did the opposite and re-paired the remotes to each fan with the lights on. Single beep. Didn’t need to reset 12 times or anything.
I'm an electrician and I was dealing with this issue at a customers house until I read your comment and solved it so thanks for that. I noticed the remotes would desync but I didn't think about using that to my advantage lol
Thank you!!! This has been killing me. I thought my daughter was leaving the light on, but she was actually controlling the fan in the game room from her remote in her bedroom the whole time. 😂Appreciate the video and the link. 😊
After 3 months I finally found the right fix. I did just as you said and it worked perfectly. Thank you very much. I'm writing this right after I fixed it. Thank you man. You saved my money for buying a new one
This worked! Yes, you need to pair the proper remote to the fan 12 times to unpair any other remotes from the fan. Unfortunately each time you need to cut power to the ceiling fan either with the circuit breaker or wall light switch (much easier if you have one!). If 2 ceiling fans are on the same breaker and there are no wall switches I imagine this would be a problem!
yeah I figured it out, similar to what Dustin said below, I had one remote that would operate three different fans (by accident), I took the offending remote to the rooms I did not want it to operate the fan in, power off in all rooms, turn the light on in room b, press the reset button in remote a, it will give 2 little beeps and now it is "unpaired" from that fan/light. Power off all again and went to room c, power on and then off then on again, hit the reset button and it gives two little beeps again and is now "unpaired" the single beep indicates it is paired. Tested and the correct remotes now operate the correct fan/light.
Mine was different, I'll describe. 1st, if you have a power switch that cuts power to the fan in the room then you don't need to touch the breakers. 2nd My hunter fan did not un pair the other remote after doing these steps 12.. 13.. 14 times. But I noticed while doing this that every other pair attempt turned the light on solid after the two flashes. Then the next time the light would not turn on after the two flashes and the remote would no longer control the fan. So after it didn't work I thought maybe there was an unpair function happening every second time. I took the other remote that was controlling this fan and did the pair function one time, The light stayed off after the two flashes and was successfully unpaired from our fan. So really it only took one operation. Maybe my version of the fan has this improved functionality and others may not. Hope that helps somebody!
thanks for this video, it gave me some insight into how we could fix our own remote controlling multiple fans issue!! information for K1403-02 hunter fan remote: unpairing the remote from multiple fans seemed to be the opposite of pairing. e.g. once paired, pair it a second time to unpair from any fan(s) it has been paired with (light should flash, then both light and fan should turn off). just be sure any fan(s) you do not want programmed are powered off when re-programming to the correct fan(s). then follow the programming steps: power off for a few seconds and then back on (from switch or breaker), press and hold the fan-off and fan-high buttons, light should flash and stay on after pairing, and the remote should no longer be paired with the incorrect fan(s). good luck!!
Your tips are great. But I just find out a better way today. Actually you can unpair the one you don’t want by just repeat the pair process. The light will flash and won’t spin. Example: Remote 1 is controlling Fan A and Fan B. But you don’t want it to control Fan B. - Power off. - Disconnect Fan A wires. - Power On. - Within 3 minutes, near Fan B, hold 0 and 3 on remote, or on some model, press and quick release the pair button on the back inside of the battery box. - Fan B will flash and blade will NOT spin. - Now Remote 1 and Fan B are unpaired. - Power off. - reconnect wires on Fan A. - Power On. Now Remote 1 should control Fan A solely.😄
This is the solution. I tried this video's suggestions because one remote controlled two fans. Doing the unpair-pair process 12 times accomplished nothing. I just needed to unpair this one remote. I called Hunter customer service and they suggested turning off the power at the breaker and pairing each fan individually. This did not and would not solve the issue. Your suggestion did. In my case, Remote A controlled Fan A & B. Remote B only controlled remote B. To unpair remote A from Fan B, i flipped the switch for Fan B and then Held the 0&3 fan buttons on Remote A. Now Remote A = Fan A. Remote B = Fan B. I did not have to unwire anything, just toggled the power to the fan with the light switch. (Works the same since it's powered by a switch.)
This was it. Tried other way like 25 times and realized all I was doing was pairing and unpairing the same remote. Once I unpaired the one that was controlling both, I was done.
I have the opposite problem. I'm trying to get 3 fans on the same switch on the same remote. I can only get 2 on (Fan A & C) and the 3rd one (Fan B) unpais. Or Fan A&C unpairs and B pairs. Any suggestions??
My fans are in different rooms and different circuit breakers. Do I need to turn off circuit breaker to turn off/on the phone or I can use the wall switch to turn off/on to pair
That depends on what your wall switch does. If you have your wall switch turned off, and the remote can still talk to the fan, then you need to turn off the circuit breaker. If your wall switch is turned off, and the remote is unable to talk to the fan, then there is no need to turn off the circuit breaker.
Unfortunately this did not work for me. I turned the breaker off 12 times and held the buttons 0+3 got the lights, but it still was getting controlled from the other remote.
@@dinealone0 I went through this routine that many times trying to get them to reprogram. Then I called hunter and they gave me the actual way which is much easier.
