Last summer I installed a Harbor Breeze ceiling fan w/ light on my
back porch (yes, it is rated for outdoor use). Somewhere along the
line, we lost the two faster fan speeds. Thinking it would be a
simple replacement of the pull-chain switch I opened it up, and found
that the switch was hard-wired through a sealed plastic box that had
melted bulges on one face and one edge. The Harbor Breeze web site is
nothing more than a statement that Lowe's is their exclusive retailer,
and a link to Lowe's site. Lowe's does not have a replacement. Does
anyone know where I can get one? I would think this would really be a
stock type part, and even though the original is all hard-wired, I
could still cut'n'splice if I had the part.

Just buy a new one!!!

Thanks. That lead me to a site that seems to have the right
replacement parts. Now I just need to dissasemble it again to get the
right specs on the capacitor (didn't know that was what it was
called!)
