wiring a ceiling fan with light kit with remote control

Reach into the canopy and extract the capacitor. Remedy this by changing the frequency of your transmitter and receiver. A ceiling fan remote transmitter and receiver can affect a close neighbor’s fan. Then connect the three wires to the fan and light (the manufacturer labels them). Take the receiver off and plug in the hot and neutral wires to the AC-in wires on the receiver. The receiver was designed to be a good fit, but keep the receipt with you in case. Use a voltage checker to see if the fan has power. That can also be accomplished, but I'm not going to cover it here.Turn off the circuit breaker and lower the fan. If you want to use the remote for the light or fan, and a wall switch for the other. Connect the 'hot' wire from the other wall switch, to the other 'hot' wire from the fan unit.Connect the 'hot' wire from one of the wall switches, to one of the 'hot' wires from the fan unit.Connect the neutral from the ceiling, to the neutral(s) in the fan unit.Connect the ground wire from the ceiling, to the ground wire(s) in the fan unit.Cap off the extra 'hot' wire from the other wall switch.Connect the 'hot' wire from one of the switches, to the 'hot' wire from the remote module in the fan.Connect the neutral from the ceiling, to the neutral from the remote module in the fan.Connect the ground from the ceiling, to the ground from the remote module in the fan.If you just want to use the remote control. One wire for neutral, one for ground, one for the lights, and one for the fan. If you pull out the remote module, you'll find four wires going from it to the fan unit. The remote module then controls the fan and light, depending on what buttons are pressed on the remote control.

The reason that there's only three wires coming out of the fan unit, is because you're only supplying power to the remote module.

So you'll have to decide if you want to use two wall switches, or the remote. Well, you can't use separate switches to control the fan and light, and also use the remote.
