Clicking on the ceiling fan remote repeatedly is not the proper way to troubleshoot an operations problem. Fans that shut off or change speeds randomly likely have a settings issue. The fan's dip switch settings must be arranged in the correct order to receive and transmit the functions you select with the remote control. Placing more than one fan in close proximity also affects the fan's performance. Enjoy the cooling effects of your ceiling fan without pulling the cord continuously. A few adjustments to a dip switch could make difference.

  1. Remove the back from the remote control, then remove the battery. Locate and remove a small panel that covers the dip switches. Examine and remember the four switch settings. Note which switches read 'On' and 'Off.'

  2. Turn off the ceiling fan at the fan and the main power supply. Flip the breaker controlling the fan to the 'Off' position.

  3. Stand on a stepladder or a sturdy chair to reach the ceiling fan. Remove the glass light cover by unscrewing the screws or sliding the globe to the unlock position. Skip this step if your ceiling fan has no light kit. Instead, remove the cap in the center of the fan.

  4. Look for a small rectangular or square-shaped receiver box. Remove the receiver box cover to look at the dip switch settings. You will see four sliding buttons. The button configuration must match the remote control's configuration. Change the dip switch settings if necessary, moving each of the four switches to the matching 'On' or 'Off' settings.

  5. Change the dip switch settings of additional fans within a close proximity of other fans. Each fan needs a different frequency -- a function controlled by the setting configuration. Pair up dip switch settings between the fan and the remotes that control them.

  6. Close the ceiling fan receiver panel. Replace the light globe, screwing it into place. Remove the ladder and turn the power on. Test your remote control to verify the settings you selected are correct.

  7. Things You Will Need

    • Ladder or chair

    • Phillips-head screwdriver

    Tip

    It is easier to verify dip switch settings before installing the fan on the ceiling. Ceiling fans run best on the factory settings.

    Warning

    If the light or fan will not work after adjusting the dip switch, you have a different problem. Contact the manufacturer for more troubleshooting options.
