I installed a ceiling fan. While it was running with the light off, the fan popped and sparked. I took the housing down to see what was going on with the wiring. I followed the directions, white to white, ground to ground, black to black and blue (from the fan). There is spot on blue wire...

My husband and I just installed a new ceiling fan where a light fixture used to be in our bedroom. Our house was built in 1926 but was rewired in 2010 I believe. The light has two switches, but only one of the switches has ever worked, so I assumed the other switch was for a fan. We took down...

Hi, I'm new here and have been struggling with this problem at my new house. The living room ceiling fan/light with a remote has not worked since we moved in a couple months ago. The fan and receiver are good, because I switched it from my bedroom where it worked no problem. In the junction...
