Hi. I'm trying to install a Fanimation ceiling fan and I have no blue wire from the ceiling to connect the light in the fan. I only have black, white, and the ground wire. From the fan I have a black, white, blue, and ground wire.
From the switch box, I have one black, a black/white striped, blue, and ground.
How can I make this work? Can I wire the black and blue wire from the fan and connect them to the black in the ceiling? If so, what do I do with the blue wire coming from the switch? Can I connect it to the black wire from the switch and connect them together with the black wire coming into the switch from the wall??
The switch is split: Left side is light control and right side is fan control with varying speeds. The light control is a dimmer slide.
I really don't want to return this fan because it was very expensive and it's perfect for our house, but not sure it's going to work after all.
Thanks for any help.
