I installed this. The light turns off suddenly and turns on as well without anyone touching the switch. The fan also slows down suddenly. What to do?

I would suspect is another signal in the area on the same frequency. What you need to do, to be sure, is go into the module in the ceiling and change one of the or two of the frequency sliders and do the same thing on your Remote.

This controller uses a wireless signal to communicate between the switch and fan. It is possible that a similar switch nearby is also controlling your fan. It could be at a neighbors house. You will need to change the code on both the wall unit and the fan unit by changing the position of the very small switches inside. This will get you to a unique code that will not interfere with other switches.

Try switching thhe code dip switches. It sounds like you have an inteference on the current code channel.

Sounds like wiring issue. Maybe grounding out. Can always call Westinghouse and exchange it.

Bad or loose connection recheck all conection or it could be a defective remote sensor

The first thing I would do is change the remotes code using the dip switch settings on both the wall unit and the fan unit. When I installed mine, and was testing, I found out I was also turning on and off my neighbors fan that had the same remote control unit installed. When I changed my remotes code, the problem went away. You may be seeing the same problem from another nearby remote. It's amazing just how far these remotes will transmit.

The fan and light come on at the same time. The instructions for the wiring were a little difficult to follow, but we did figure it out.

The light switch turns on/off the fan's light only. It is not a dimmer switch.

I am no expert by any means but that's what my old one was doing before I installed the new one. They say not to touch the bulb. Did u try reinstalling it? Maybe u got a defective one, I don't know. Maybe blow some air in there to remove some dust? Again I'm not an expert, but for me no issues.

No you don't The wiring for your light will work just fine. The only thing is both fan and light come on at the same time but that is what we wanted.

I don't know, the unit stopped operating. No light, no fan, circuit breaker is not popped so I am perplexed.

Yes, I have the same problem. I have learned to work around it. I make sure that I turn the main switch off, when I am not using the fan. I will check the channel switch, as suggested by other users. It is a very good fan, I would not replace it.

im not an electrician but yes the light works without using the fan. but i have two different wall switches . one for each. its a stunnning fixture

The fan/light is wired so that they can be seperately controled. I got a switch that controls the light and the duration that the fan stays on. The fan is so quiet I reccomend you get this type of switch as it would be easy to leave the fan running all the time because you can barely hear it.

I was looking back and the fan that you are talking about we have a regular switch that you would turn on and off lights. That switch is very simple to change. Two wires, black wires. the hot side of the power. The white wire will not be on that switch. Make sure the power supply is off when making this repair.

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.

No light, there is a fan... but there is no noise, I actually have trouble knowing if it is running.

I am assuming the fan is running and the unit isgetting current? The reason I ask is that the rocker style power switch on the bottom is known to become difficult in turning on/off and go bad. The one thing that comes to mind is when you install the module there is a screw that is designed to draw the bulb inwards as you tighten it. However, this is very poorly designed and the plastic that the screw sets into often gives way and may possibly prevent the bulb from being drawn in all the way to make proper contact. But it sounds like yours is seated correctly, unfortunately I have no true answer. Maybe the UV bulb had been dropped and is faulty even though it is new.

there is a pull chain for both fan and light, there is no light control by switch

My fan only has one light ... the up light button and the down light button do the same thing (turns on, turns off and hold to dim)

Shut the light off at the source. That is what I have done. When I need it I switch it back on. Otherwise call the company.

The fan should come on when plugged in. Return it before it before it over heats and isn't repairable.
