If it works as intended the problem is in the remote not the fan. (2) Recognize that both the fan pull-chain and the remote control speed by reducing the voltage on the line. Normally, for remote control you want the pull-chain set to "High". | |

| Apr 18, 2018 at 3:18 | comment | added | ThreePhaseEel | Yes, do you have a meter, especially one with a capacitance function? | |
| Apr 18, 2018 at 1:54 | comment | added | Jim Stewart | Do you have a meter to test the voltage from the black to the white and from the blue to the white? Do you have access to the space where the power wire (the "cable") is fed from? You must know which breaker controls this circuit to have shut off the power when installing the fan. How many other lights or receptacles are on this circuit? You may have a loose connection. If your switches and receptacles are wired using the "back stab" push in connectors, one of these may not be making good contact. | |
