My remote stopped working with my hampton breeze ceiling fan. Will this one work? How hard is it to replace the receiver? I have no idea how to do

Make sure you get the right one and make sure the wiring is right other than that it isn't too bad

You can buy the remote (including the receiver module) from Amazon. You'll might have to drop the fan assembly to install the new module into the fan housing./ I don't believe the modules are interchangeable with any/all remote controls.

the remote was missing when I bought my house and this worked great...it will work with it's own receiver which is included...just plug it in and hook up a couple of wires...I put in an entirely new garage opener and have one of these that I would sell...plantstation1@yahoo.com

My fan is Hampton Bay and it works just fine. The trick is to set the code on the remote to match the code in the fan. Good luck!

It worked for our's - we were thrilled not to have to replace our fan. The price for the replacement remote was low. Good luck - I hope you have the success we did.

i doubt it. i kinda did the same thing you're doing and tried to match it up with another fan. it was worth a shot, but didn't work and i sent it back. i went ahead and bought a brand new fan with remote

I still have not been able to get this remote to work and will probably end up having to pay an electrician to get it to work. I do remember when the electrician first installed the fan he used a code like "1, 2, 3, 4" so I didn't have to write it down. Well I can't get any straight combination to work. There is nothing wrong with the fan mechanism. I lost the original remote - probably ended up in the garbage by accident. My next step will be to call the Company and see if they can help.

I looked around for a compatible remote for my fan and it doesn't seem matter. Regardless of what type of remote you get you will have to undo the fan and wire in a new receiver. I got one that was specific to my model of fan. I had to rewire it anyway. Its not difficult to do, just a pain. Have a friend to help.

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.

The product description advised it will work with any Hunter fan, I personally have not installed the remote on your fan. I hope my comments help

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.

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...:(

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!

It would help me if I knew that your unit had once worked correctly, but without this info I would suggest to First, make sure the unit is in sync with the ceiling fan (to do this, if able, turn light off then turn light on, press square button in center of fan control and hold button down until light flashes on and off twice then attempt to turn light on/off as normal). Should this not work or wall unit completely not functioning , problem could be in one of two places; (1) receiver unit in the fan itself could need to be replaced or (2) wall unit could need to be replaced. I ended up replacing both of mine since I first replaced the receiver unit and when that failed to fix the problem I replaced the wall unit, which did fix the problem. I hope this will help you. Another option is to purchase a hand held remote, sync it with the light as previously instructed, and if this works you will know the problem is in your wall unit and not in your receiver.

Obviously I don't know for certain what could be wrong but several troubleshooting ideas come to mind: first, is the fan off? Try taking batteries out, rubbing them on cloth or towel and replacing them, and then try to use. If that does not work, try replacing all batteries with new. Make certain fan is completely off before working with the remote so that any instructions the remote or fan received before it stopped working will be eliminated. Also unplug the fan for 2-3 minutes to delete prior, possibly conflicting instructions sent to the fan by the remote. Also, make certain the remote has a clear, unobstructed view of the fan--the remote won't work if it's too far away or at an angle to the fan. Hope these help but you may need to contact the manufacturer.

Assuming that your fan had a remote, and this is a replacement part. Possibly, check the model number of your old remote on the Hampton Bays web site, that's how I determined if this was compatible with my fan. I hope this helps...

This is the entire unit...both the remote, and the receiver that installed in the fan itself. I would guess you would have to replace the received in the fan in order for this remote to work with it. In my case, the remote was the same brand as the remote I was replacing, so I did not install the receiver that came with it. The receiver already in the fan worked with this remote. Hope this helps!
