how does the remote control work with an existing Kichler ceiling fan?

You will need to know the proper placement of the 4 switches inside the remote unless you want to install the separate piece that comes with it in the fan. Apparently the placement varies by fan model. I bought mine as a replacement remote for one we misplaced and we could not get it to work. Fortunately we found the original remote and looked at the pins, matched them up on the new one and it works great

Mine instantly worked (whew) as the code when my light was installed I just left it at manufacturer settings and that is what this remote shipped set at. It also comes with the guts of the light fixture which you will not need already in your fan but I hung on to mine just in case......

You have to change / replace the sensor inside the fan assembly and all will work fine. Ckeck batteries in remote too.

It worked fine for me as a replacement for a remote that went bad. It comes with some components for the ceiling fan, but I did not need them.

It worked just fine with mine,.... as a replacement for the original Kichler one that had stopped working. I think I may have needed to match the physical switches inside the report to match the original one, before I let it go. It was really pretty easy - just a bit pricey, as i remember it.

My Kichler ceiling fan already had a remote control inside of fan motor housing. This remote also come with a little remote control box that you can have installed inside of fan motor housing, thus making an existing ceiling fan, remote controlled.

The remote will work right out of the box. If you have more than one ceiling fan you you can set the dip switch settings in the battery compartment to a different frequency setting. If you are replacing the remote you can copy the settings from your old remote over to the new one. If your fan does not have the remote feature your will need to install the controller which can be purchased separately.

look at your old remote. there should be a distinct number combination on a "dial". simply put that same number combination on your new remote to be able to control your fan. no electrician needed.

After looking at several of the "Minka" at Amazon, they all seem to include a remote control. This universal control is designed to work on most ceiling fan/light units that are controlled by a wall switch or pull chain on the unit itself. It needs to have constant power coming in to it so it will utilize the automatic functions. I would be concerned the Minka and the universal remotes might disable the other one. If you could bypass or remove the Minka remote, it should work.

Hi, There is a 4new combination switch in the brain portion at the ceiling fan. The switch combination must be the same as that under the remote back cover. Open remote and you'll see the switch I'm speaking of. Well you will see the same switch on the controller. Set them sp each of the 4 switch positions are identicle and it will work. Thanks for asking. If that doesn't work, try another battery. CHARLES

All I can tell you is that it worked on a Hunter fan that I have. The unit must have the light turned on and the fan set on high for the remote to work.

This is the answer I got when I ordered my Kichler fan -- why don't you call this guy Jerry? his 800 number is listed in his reply "Hello! This can indeed be used with a remote: Kichler Lighting 337001WH Universal Hand-Held Remote Control System If there is anything else we can help with, please let us know! --Jerry from Lighting and Locks 1-800-334-5804" Lighting and Locks answered on June 15, 2013

Hi Deanna, unfortunately I am not using the remote that came with the fan. I purchased two fans for my back patio and opted to hard-wire them together to my switch. So I am only using my wall control. When it comes time to go backwards, I will just switch/press the small lever on the actual fan itself. Sorry I couldn't confirm this for you...:(

Julia - that's a great question. We have just recently installed our fan (which I LOVE, by the way), and do not have it hooked up to a remote control. However, we did look at Universal Remote Controls at Home Depot with the thought in mind that some day we might want one. If you could obtain the specifics on this type of remote control and contact a "brick-and-mortar" establishment that sells these fans (like Lamps Plus) they might be able to answer your question. Just a thought!

Hi caseyo, thanks for the question. Yes, you can use a remote with this fan. We recommend Control Model No: 99019. It must be purchased separately, and usually runs around $65 or so. As for your second question, lights can be added to this fan. We hope this helps, if you need anything further please reach out to one of our awesome experts. Not only do they know everything, but they're literally sitting right next to their phones right now :) Hansen Wholesale 1-800-201-1193

I do not think it matters what type of fan you have. This device should work as long as you have space in the mount of your ceiling fan to store the receiver, which will receive a signal from the remote control. If your fan comes with a remote, you may end up disabling your own remote and replacing the remote with this device. I don't see why it should not work. This remote is communicating with its own set of sender and receiver, assuming that the fan remote does not co-exists and gets disabled.

It does on mine and I concur with the other comments! I actually had not noted the remote until this question,Then found it slipped into the body of the fan right at the top. Works exactly like the regular fan controls. This is one great fan!

I purchased Hunter 27206 Ceiling Fan and Light Universal Remote Control and it worked just fine for the fan for me.

The odds are it will not work. The remote control is a two part system. The transmitter,(the hand held / wall mounted portion) and the receiver (box with wires that connects to the fan located in the bezel between the fan and the ceiling). Both the hand held transmitter and the wired receiver have a series of dip switches that need to be set the same for the remote to work. I recommend you purchase a new remote and have a certified electrician install it.

I used a Kichler remote with a Kichler fan - worked perfectly. Contact the Hunter fan people at their website and ask them directly. The Kichler came with a handheld remote part... and a receiver.... so maybe .

Yes, you can control it with the remote or directly on the fan itself. Loves this fan! Very quiet and powerful!

No, it does not include a remote control. It operates by the use of a chain that you pull on to change fan speed or to turn the light on and off.

I assume you are referring to a remote control receiver within the fan housing. Since this wall control is hard wired, it will have no effect on any type of fan remote control or its receiver contained within the fan housing. The remote should still work as before, after installing this wall control. Good luck to you!
