| | | Ceiling fan remote
I have a "Harbor Breeze" ceiling fan. Recently I noticed the remote "red dot" light came on and stayed on, this light usually came on when a function button was pressed. I thought this meant that the battery was low so I changed it. The red light came back on immediately, and the remote would not control the fan. The model # on the remote is UC7080T. Does anyone know if the remote is bad or not? Also, where can I purchase this remote if I need a new one?

| The button may be stuck ON. Dissassembly and cleaning may fix.
Try getting near fan, momentarily touch battery connection, then again, see what affect you have. |

| Strat is correct. It sounds like you have a stuck button. | |

| Disassemble the remote, sometimes the little rubber buttons can be removed.
Remove the battery and momentarily connect it as though you were to reattach it. | |

| You would be mementarily connect battery to see if it reacts. If all else Home Depot, or Ebay, Ceilingfan may provide source. Good Luck | |
