Old Ceiling Fan

[smokegrub]

Current Status: Fan (3 Speeds + On/Off Using Pull Chain)

Lights (2 Banks of 2; 1 Pull Of A Different Pull Chain Turns Bank 1 On; A Second Pull Turns Bank 1 Off And Bank 2 On; A Third Pull Is Supposed To Turn On Both Banks (Works Only Occasionally); A Fourth Pull Turns Off The Light.

 

Objective: Fan (3 Speeds + On/Off)

Lights (Turn On/Off Both Banks Simultaneously)

 

Is it possible to do this with an On/Off KPL and a FanLinc?

[apnar]

Should be. Set fan pull chain to high and lamp to both banks then hide the pull chains. Then connect up fanlinc and link up with KPL.

I concur with anpar. That's the way to servitude up.

You may want to completely bypass the light switch, especially if it's intermittent.

Stu:

 

The light switch is interimittent. How do I proceed in bypassing it?

Turn off the power, open up the fan cover and remove that switch, then join those wires together in a wire nut. Turn power back on and light should come on. Voila!

There may be three wires going to the switch, line and one for each light. Same advice, connect all three together. Post back if you find something different.

Also good to note if you get a hum from the Fanlink or not and model of the ceiling fan.

 

Doing some renovations and will run an extra wire out to the ceiling fan from a double gang box so I can control the ceiling fan remotely instead of having to find one that the fanlinc will fit into.  Since we have to buy the fan new, hoping we don't have a remote in the fan the wife picks and that it will not hum with the fanlinc in control.

 

Am looking forward to the keypad for the Fanlinc though, it's pretty self explanatory!
