Default Need help installing a ceiling fan



The usual fan color code:
Black - Hot to fan motor
White - Neutral
Blue - Hot to lights
Bare - Ground


So, Black and Blue together to the hot wire in the box.
White to the neutral wire in the box.
Bare wire - ??? I really don't know what you do with a ground wire in
an ungrounded box?


Wrap it around a screw within the junction box.
