Hunter remote controlled cieling fan does nothing when turned on

You can go on-line @ www.hunterfans.com or call 1-800-715-0393. I think you might need a new receiver.

You need remote control.

Go to your circuit breaker or fuse box, and turn off the power to the fan you will be programming.

2 Turn the fan's remote control over, and remove the battery compartment cover. Take out the remote's 12-volt alkaline battery, and set it aside.

3 Match the DIP switches inside the remote's battery compartment with the DIP switches on the fan's receiver unit.

4 Reinsert the 12-volt alkaline battery into the remote's battery compartment, and replace the battery compartment cover.

5 Go back to your circuit breaker or fuse box, and turn the power to your fan back on.

6 Press the "Hi," "Med" and "Lo" buttons on the remote control in quick succession. Complete this step within 20 seconds of completing Step 5. The remote is now programmed and ready to operate your fan.

you can call hunter technical support and they should be able to tell you why battery will not last. a bad remote etc. here is the number-- 1-888-830-1326, have a good day !!

See bottom diagram (4-way switches)

I have the same fan. The fan and the remote have some "jumpers" which allow you to change the codes, useful if someone else nearby has the same fan. You can see the jumpers inside the remote, open the back cover... you'll see "4 3 2 1" on the circuit board. Unfortunately you'll need to dismount the fan to change its jumpers, they need to be the same as the jumpers in your remote (which you can move around pretty easily).

My switch broke, so I'm in the process of replacing it.

Before taking it apart, I made note of the wire colors:

L=Black
1=Grey
2=Brown
3=Lt Blue


Good luck!

Logitech makes a universal remote that uses RF (radio frequencie) which could be programmed for the cieling fan. 

Make sure the light is switched ON at the fan...pull the chain a couple times and see if it make a difference.

Did you have to wire in the remote? If so you prob hooked up the light to constant power source. more info on number of wires on remote unit and wires on ceiling fan pls.

Sounds like the remote receiver units (located where the mains connect to the fans) took a surge and have failed.
