The ceiling box has five wires coming out of it, two white, twoone gray, one black and one green/bare (ground). The two black and gray were connected to the black & blue leads from the old pull-chain fan & light I removed. The two white I am not sure, at least one was connected to the old fan white lead, but I'm not sure about the second, it may have come loose when I moved the fan, but it was not capped off. The black and one of the whites appear to be a slightly smaller gauge wire. The gray may just be a really old black.
Attached is a picture of the old mount before I installed the new, but you can see all of the aforementioned wires.
For the left switch, there is a bare wire (ground) a white and a blackgray. Unfortunately the new fan control unit has a green (ground) and two blacks, one says TO FAN and the other says TO POWER.
I can't recall how I wired the switch as it was late and I'm now at work. When I get home I'll verify for you. Obviously I did hook up the green to the bare copper in the switch box. I probably put the white "TO FAN" and the black "TO POWER." Here is the way I have wired the switch:
Attached is a picture of the electrical connection guideI have tried two wiring setups in the manufacturer's instructionsceiling junction:
Method 1: Ceiling gray and black connected to fan black. The receiver unit in theBoth whites to fan canopy came pre-connected and mountedwhite. This worked at first to turn on the light and fan at a single speed, but became unresponsive to further commands.
When I flipped the breaker back on and turned the switch on, it worked.Method 2: I turned on Capped off separately the lightsmaller gauge black and white in the ceiling, and then turnedput the ceiling gray to fan on low. I waited a bitblack, then triedand white to turn the fan to a higher speed or turn on/off the lightwhite. Unfortunately, this resulted in but the fan & light would no longer respond to any commands.no activity I immediately went and turnedat the breaker off againfan after restoring power and have left it this waytrying the switch.
I'm not above hiring an electrician, although I made itam out of ideas at this far and would prefer to trypoint.
