Will this work on a Hampton Bay 545HRL? I have two that have no remotes. The wall switches turn the fans on and off, but impact speed or light

Unable to answer the question. I am unfamiliar with the kind of fan. As long as you have somewhere to put the remote controller at the base of the fan yes this will work.

For this remote to work the receiver / control unit must be wired in to the fan. If you already have a receiver/ control unit installed you can attempt to match the dip switch settings and control your existing fan. If you choose to install the remote system. I recommend that you hire a certified, licensed and insured electrician.

Yes. The software is in the kit. all you need is a power source which is your switch.

This is a replacement remote control for a specific Hampton Bay ceiling fan, there is a hampton bay universal kit you can buy the the CHQ7096T is not the universal one with a reciever.http://www.homedepotceilingfans.com/universal-thermostatic-ceiling-fan-and-light-remote-control-conversion-kit

I did not have to install anything extra to get the remote to work. The only difficult part of getting the remote to work was figuring out the dip switch setting. I took a chance on this remote mainly because of the cost. The ones lowes and home depot sell are around 40 bucks and there is a chance of it still not working.There are 16 different frequencies for the Hampton Bay Fans, so you would have to play with the combinations. The 2 fans I have, one of them was set with all the switches down and the other one was 3 down and 1 up.Here are the frequency list: (I believe 0 is down and 1 is up)0000000100100100011001010011011111111110110110111001101011001000Hope this helps.

I believe that you will need two wall switches --- one for turning the fan on/off and one for turning the light on/off.

I don't know. My fan and light like this is controlled by a wall switch and pull cord. I switch it on at the wall, and then control the light and fan speed by the 2 pull cords.

I seem to remember the manual having instructions for wiring the fan to two switches; one for fan and the other for light. However, the fan doesn't have any onboard controls, so you will need the remote to adjust fan speed and direction and the light dimmer. Try checking the Emerson website for the manual and while you're there, see if they make a compatible wall switch that has the speed and dimmer functions from the remote. Or just resign yourself to the remote. I didn't think I would like it either, but it's ended up being really nice to not get out of bed to change the fan speed.

Yes, and you really wouldn't want to do it "remote-only", as you'd want to have a power cutoff to the unit, which the remote would not be able to provide.Emerson has a specific wall switch for their fans, but it can be used with others. The light dimming and secondary light controls (no secondary lights on this fan) would probably not work correctly.

The remotes come programmed at 'all zeros' by default and most people only change them if there are interference issues. Try just using it out of the box. If that doesn't work, you can try setting the switches through the possible codes (there are 256, so it's not impossible) or you can open up the shroud for the fan and see what the controller module has set.

Its the remote that doesn't work on the fan that was made by the same company. The Hampton Bay (Home depot) replacement I bought controls it just fine though and this thing requires you to change the receiver up in the fan. Don't bother. If you are just interested in a remote and not re-install of your fan, do yourself a favor and get the other brand.

If the light is equipped with the Hampton Bay wireless receiver built in it should work. I purchased it to replace the remote for a Hampton Bay fan that has an up-light and down-light where the previous remote button stopped working and all I had to do was put a battery in it and set the dip switches and it works great.

I have the Hunter Cortland fan and it is wired so that one wall switch turns on the lights and the other wall switch turns on the fan. We didnot get a remote for the fan because the installer said the remotes are more of a problem then anything. We have had the fan up for a year and a half now and it works perfectly. No noise on low speed, which is all we use. Hope this is helpful to you.

Sorry, I don't know. We don't have a remote, we just pull the switch for the fan & the light. ( pull switches are more heavy duty than on older fans)

No u need to use the remote to control the light and fan speed. It is the most easy way to install it. If u have two switches on the wall u don't need the remote. But most homes don't have that..

I assume it will. I purchased a universal remote (not Hunter's) and they work fine with my fans.

You can use a universal remote. I took the remotes out of my old fans ( different brand ) and put them in these fans. Works better than the old ones.

I think that it will work with any Hampton Bay Fan, so long as you match the remote's code to the fan's. That part can be tricky.

my fan has reverse switch on the fan itself and never had one on the remote. I think it will work as long as the sensor on your fan is compatible.
