Default New ceiling fan -- worked about 10 seconds then stopped, help!

The only thing I would suggest, is to be sure any internal splices are
tight. Not the power that you connected, since you're getting a clicking
sound, that would indicate the receiver is powered and receiving a signal,
but any internal connections that you have access to, that would go from the
receiver to the fan motor

Hi,
I have just installed a new ceiling fan in my living room. (Hampton
Bary Berlini)
I have the power on, and using the remote I was able to start the fan
spinning on LO, I then put it to MED and it did not speed up, but
rather coasted slowly to a stop. Now I cannot get it to operate at any
speed.

When it was spinning there was no indication there was any difficulty
with turning the blades (no wierd noises). I can still spin them
freely by hand.

The remote is still causing the fan to click, so I'm fairly confident
it is getting my signals...it does not seem to be working however.

My question is, can anyone think of something foolish I have overlooked
in my install that would cause this problem? Or does it just sound like
a faulty fan I need to exchange.

Thanks
Steven
