Thanks. This video inspired me to fix the ceiling fan myself, and it worked! :)

ok mr wright i have a situation here.... my fan light turns on, the pull string switch works but the actual fan blades dont move..... i replaced the 3 speed switch

with a westinghouse 3 speed switch. i connected it identical to the original configuration 1,2,3 and L.... no dice, it doesnt work.... money is tight what else do you suggest sir?

[TejasRCpilot]

[Lisettear1]

I wasn't sure if this would fix our fan, but I changed the switch and now it works again. Thank you so much for posting this video. Keep up the great work.

They need to replace the chain switch on the craftmade porch fan which is stuck on low in the hilton.

[usabox]

[Dawter]

Thanks, you're instructions were perfect!

The swtich in my girlfriend's bedroom has recently gone bad and now the problem is unbearable. I wanted to repair it myself, but needed more info on the replacement. In addition, I was seeking some confidence. I wanted to try it myself. I will be going to Lowe's to get the switch and then tackling this today. My sister's two fan switches are bad, my brother and I were going to buy another. I will suggest we save some money and just replace switches instead. I will update, once project is done.

Thanks, this is the exact problem i had on my room, we'd been out of light for almost 4 months.

[LordNelson87]

[Runningwolf20]

Great info! Thanks

0:29 hahahahaha dis guy is hilarious!!!!!!!!!! jk

[loveleatherfurniture]

Thanks. This was exactly what I needed, down to the tip about how to support the bottom portion when it's heavy. Clear directions. One hour (including the trip to the store to buy a pull chain) and $4.33 later, we have light again. Great job!

[DavidSS999]

My chain completely disconnected from the switch, is there a way I can simply reattach the chain or do I have to go and buy another one?

This time I decided to go on youtube to find the answer and Wow....your video was extraordinarily helpful. I watched the video two or three times and it seemed simple enough. I tried it and ...........success! What an incredible confidence booster! IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!

[atgrant49]

What an incredible resource. My ceiling light has been out for months. I decided to see if there was something on you tube. I looked at other sites, but your site and video was extraordinarily helpful. I followed your instructions after looking at the video at least 3 times and......success!!!!!

Thank you for your great instructions. What a confidence booster!
