How to Install a Ceiling Fan Remote Control 

Thank you! We just moved into a house that has ceiling fans with no pull chains. It was driving me crazy and I couldn't figure it out until I stumbled upon this video. That has to be the solution! They are remote frikkin fans.

keep it up man. i learning a lot.

Does this override the pull-chain and wall switch options for turning on and adjusting the fan? I'm happy to see your channel has grown so much - I enjoy the videos. Take care.

I fast forwarded to the wire connection, finished in 4 seconds. Thank you very much, SIR. Remote paired.

Thanks, a no nonsense approach without a lot of talky talk.

Thank you for sharing. I am replacing lost remote with new one. So in a nutshell I just need to figure out the code combination. I can try out 16 combinations and one of them will work. Previous remote was Hampton Bay.

good job, u should point out to make sure the current fan assembly has a canopy with a lot of space to hold the transmitter and the extra wires!

Muy util. / Very useful. You have save my Hampton Bay Fans of being dispose because the three-speed switches last no more than 3 years. Homedepot does not sell original parts for its fans and after market switches are garbage in general. Gracias

Your a genius

Nice video! Im thinking of doing this on one of my bedrooms. Question! After installing, can you connect the remote to BOND, which makes the fan and remote smart by giving it control through your phone? and Google or Alexa? Thanks!

We've just acquired a home and the remote that operates the ceiling fan-light fixture in the bedroom is broken although still operative. Most if not all of the videos I've seen suggest that if we want to replace the remote with a new one, then we need to change out the receiver as well as the transmitter. However, our realtor suggested that as long as the DIP switches are aligned, then the EXISTING receiver will respond to the NEW remote. In other words, I could open a new one, set the DIP switches to mirror the existing remote, and all will be good. I'm skeptical but thought I would ask. True?

I love it!😁😁😁😁😁😁

Would this still work if the fan and light are on different switches? I have two hot wires, a white wire, and a ground wire coming from the ceiling, but the receiver input only has two input wires

Do I really need to change the receiver?..Can I just change the position of the jumper settings in the new transmitter to match the settings as the ones in the receiver?

My canopy (where the fan connects to the ceiling) is very small on a slanted ceiling. Can I buy a larger one? The box won't fit in there. :-/

My ceiling fan has a pancake box, will I still be able at add remote. The ceiling is slanted.

What's the name of fan in the video?

Hi what the link to amazon please ?

What is your favorite fan speed?

I asked a handy man to install a fan remote in a ceiling fan. He said it could not be done because my fan is "wired on a single pole and the wires that split the fan/light are not there". I am clueless as to what he means and my other fan, that is identical, has the same remote installed and it works just as it is supposed to... Thoughts?

Point out that no license Electrican is needed

You need to hold the remote closer. It will cause problems if you're that far away.

wow

Should be installed by a licensed Electrician in Australia dude.

Now I’m wondering what to do with the red wire from my ceiling 🙄🙄🙄

You fast forwarded the most important part, the wiring!! What a useless video!!
