Ceiling Fan Light Randomly Turns On
Light comes back on once i flick the switch a few times.
Ceiling fan light randomly turns on. Check your ceiling fan remote. You will not need to do any wiring for this fix. The next step is to turn off your circuit breaker that powers the fan just in case. I hear a click from the fan when it s ready to go back on there is also an outlet in the room that does not work if that matters.
It has a remote control no chains. Hold a noncontact voltage tester against the light switch. Longneck dec 30 13 at 15 27 add a comment. There are a few reasons why this might occur.
Test that the power to the fan is dead using a voltage detector. There are a few different things that can happen to cause this problem. Whether you have a hampton bay ceiling fan or other having the fan turn on by itself can cause a problem. Fan turns on and or off by itself this renders your fan useless and could be worse then a fan that won t turn on at all since the wires within the fan could need replacing.
Hunter fan turns on by itself i recently had a hunter ceiling fan installed to replace another one a harbor breeze which was a lemon. If you install a fan in place of an existing ceiling light but then misplace the remote you can turn on the light by turning off the switch then back on again.
