| spschritt | I have a Harbor Breeze Aero fan purchased in 2004 that has worked perfectly until recently. The wall switch lights up when pushed and there's power to the fan, having check the wires with a voltage meter. This is a fan only, no light. There were no warning signs or noise before it just quit. Any ideas? | 11/3/2008 10:05:37 PM |

| cfanrepair | Is it an RF wall switch? Is there a receiver in the fan? If you dont know, open it up at the ceiling and find out. | 11/4/2008 12:02:26 PM |

| spschritt | The fan is wired direct, no remote. | 11/5/2008 6:25:18 PM |

| cfanrepair | What type of wall switch does it use? What buttons does the wall switch have. | 11/5/2008 11:19:29 PM |

| spschritt | The wall switch has buttons for on/off, speeds, reverse, light, and a slide switch for on/off. | 11/11/2008 10:09:24 PM |

| cfanrepair | That's an RF wall switch. You will need to replace either the switch or the receiver or both. Contact Harbor Breeze for replacement parts. | 11/12/2008 8:00:31 PM |

| spschritt | Thank you. I assume RF means radio frequency? I thought the fan's operation was all controlled by hard wire. There is a black box that's about 2" x 4" x 1/2" located just below the junction box at the ceiling. Is that the receiver? | 11/13/2008 5:40:49 PM |

| cfanrepair | If the wall switch has a reverse function then it's RF. The black box is the receiver. | 11/17/2008 6:30:09 PM |
