eeneR 3 #1 October 4, 2006 This is classic!! I had a ceiling fan replaced (warranty) at my condo. Now normally I would have done it myself but this was covered, so I decided to let them do it (first mistake) anyway, after going thru hoops the electrician and the fan both make it to my place yesterday. I had installed a fan earlier this year myself with a remote in the dining room. So I decided while they were doing this one to see if they would install the remote if I bought it. They did no problem. The problem comes in after he is done installing, big dummy here (that would be me) didn't change the dip switches on the remote and receiver to a different code. So now both fans are set with the factory default one remote, works both fans...ALL THE TIME Which is ok till one is on and one is off and you want them both off! I spent 5 min at one point last night trying to get both lights off Im gonna have to pull one of them back down and change the dip switches, which would be easy if I didnt have vaulted ceilings ....but damnit I couldn't help but laugh at myself last night.

simplyputsi 0 #3 October 4, 2006 I have to laugh at that too. Reminds me in the last place I lived the roommates fan/light was set close to the same as my fan/light and twice when she came home late at night my fan and light would come on and just about scare the shit out of me, since it was the middle of the night. It would just get real bright and then the fan would be on full blast. I let it happen twice and then had to say ummmm can you fix this? They weren't even on the same code, but close enough I guess.
