You should have two wall switches; one on the red and one on the black.

Perhaps you are simply using the wrong switch. Either try to find the
switch on the black wire, or attach the red feed to the black fan wire.


Ignore this. Wade hasn't the slightest clue but isn't the type to let
that stop him.

There may be a switch on the hot wire (black), or two three way switches
with the final switch's armature going to the hot wire but the neutral
wire is *never* switched.


So, you think:
1) that red wires are neutrals
2) switches have armatures
3) that this circuit has a neutral

And I don't have a clue?
