I do not think so... Home Depot sold me one and it did not work... I went online Amazon and bought the same one that came with the fan... and the fan was installed in @2005... and they have the exact same remote... think it was about $40. and IF you need the remote part that goes in the actual fan itself... the remote control included that part. Mine worked without having to switch that out. Good Luck!

well does your fan have a chain control for your light and fan speed? if it does this will not work. I you have one that is remote controlled all ready this will work for you. Now you will have to install the module with this remote. And the answer to your question, there are universal remotes out there, but if you don't know the make and model of your module, they will not work. You basically have to install the complete matching set. I hope this answer's your question? Tedd

As far as I know it should. I bought my remote separately and it was installed when the fan was installed.

Yes, because the remote kit comes with its own transmitter that is matched with the remote.

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.

Yes, if your original fan uses a remote with similar functions. Start by setting the dip switch settings in the battery compartment to match your original remote, if you still have it. My original remote had all the switches set to up(didn't work). I moved them to all down(didn't work). I moved the left most switch up and left the others down and it works perfectly. Good luck there are 16 different combinations. :-)

From the research I have done, the remote and IR receiver in the fan have to be compatible. Replacement components are no longer available, The only solution is a new ceiling fan with a compatible remote.

I was unable to get any other remote to work for me. I had to have the one that came with my fan fixed.

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.

I don't see any way on mine to reprogram it.Pretty much specific to Hunter fans.There are ones on the market labeled as "universal", but i don't know if they are programmable either.

If your old remote was the same as this one then I would guess yes. Otherwise I am not sure.

Yes its Universal and will work with any fan. I used it on a hunter fan from Lowes hardware

Don't own the fan (sent it back-no remote). Any fan will work as long as you buy a long enough down rod so the blades don't hit the ceiling.

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.

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 .

I believe that it is a universal remote. My remote was purchased after my fan and it works fine.

I don't know what kind of remote the Minka-aire fan uses, but this comes with a transmitter (remote) and receiver. The receiver goes in the fan unit. If you know how to replace the receiver in your fan, you should be able to substitute this one, then the remote will work. Good luck!

When I purchased this remote it was listed as a "Universal" remote for Kichler ceiling fans. I don't know the model of my Kichler ceiling fan, I ordered the remote anyway and it worked. It should work with all Kichler ceiling fans.

Yes, this remote should work. If the new remote does not operate the fan, you may need to change the frequency code on the remote to match the code on the receiver. The receiver is located inside the fan canopy. Instructions are included with the remote.

Depends on the electronics at the fan. Not all Hunter remotes work with all Hunter fan electronics.

Your old remote should still work fine. We have 2 originals and this new one and no problems.
