Ceiling Fan Help \ Ceiling Fan Problems \ New HB remote makes lights pulsate

I bought and installed a harbor breeze fan remote at my house, I've installed a million of these before it's pretty simple. For some reason It's like I'm getting feed back inthe light line. The lights will very dimly pulsate while off you can notice it at night pretty well. Fan runs fine and if I turn the switch completely off it's fine. Just went I hit the light on or off button it does this. I'm sure I have the thing installed right. I even took it back and the next one did the same thing. My only concern is that that light switch jumps off to my bathroom and closet so I have 2 wires coming off of the secondary black wire on the remote but I didn't think that would cause a issue.

I've did everything I can figure out to do on this thing. My last thing is I have for CFL's installed which you can't dim. The light actually acts as a dimmer if you hold the light button in which I didn't know. Maybe this could be causing it. I'll try putting in 4 bulbs which you can dim.

Sounds like you've already solved your own problem. You cant use CFLs in a remote fan.
