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

If the speed switch broke, it could have broke in such a way that it
effected the fan.

Do the lights work?

later,

Nothing lasts forever. You should have purchased the extended warranty
which covers the fan for up to 5 hours.



ROFL!
