To select a proper universal remote control, you should know about the number of digits to its set-up codes. There are 3 digit, 4 digit, 5 digit, 2 digit and even single digit codes, to some brand devices. After confirming this, check the sites linked here. Both the sites have set-up code list and set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. Check which brand remote control has set-up code/s to your device brand, and buy that one according to availability. Brand name of the remote control isn't a matter, but it should have set-up codes in its code list, to the device brand you have.
Please note: Every new universal remote control will have set-up code list, and set-up procedure along with its pack. Never accept a remote control, that hasn't both of this. For more details about the set-up codes, visit the site http://electrohelponline.blogspot.com/ Check this site too. http://remotesearch.blogspot.com/ Universal remote controls are available at most of the electronic spare part selling shops.
Is this an add-on remote? If so, you can get a new one anywhere that sells fans. You probably need a new receiver, but you have a low-end store brand fan (Lowes)so you might have trouble finding one if it came with a built-in receiver. Remember, You get what you pay for!
A new remote or new Grandson? For the remote you can try Lowes or Home Depot. They have a small display of handheld remotes for ceiling fans and remotes for overhead lights. I looked up the brand and Crosswinds is carried by Lowes.
I hope my solution is very helpful and that the remote will be reasonable priced. If you had an idea to add a fan to another room you could get the second fan and try its remote on the old fan. That way you would not be spending extra dollars for just a remote.
My mom was constantly losing TV remotes. Have your Grandson look under sofas and recliners as they tend to swallow remotes. If you have a cat, check your shoe closet because cats will place objects in their owners shoes. If you have a dog, it may have swallowed the remote. It might be worth checking.
before you buy a new one try this
turn off the power!!
remove the fan controller and open it
you will see a big resistor (gray) resolder it - either on side is loose
or it is completly off
resistor location is r7
Thanks

You can find these on ebay or your local door shop. They also make a universal remote that can be programmed to the opener made by chamberlain called a clicker. You can get this at lowes or menards or at chamberlain.com. Thanks BB
I have a solution for you. Call 1-866-600-FANS(3267) and give them the numbers on the side of the receiver. Example: 7067FM-22 (6+5) Variations of this receiver are used by many different manufacturers including Hampton Bay,Emerson,Minka Aire, etc... There is a web site that shows a few examples of this receiver available. http://www.fanmanlighting.com P.S. It helps to know if your Ceiling Fan has a 2nd light above the fan or reverses direction from the transmitter.
