I'm trying to install a Hampton Bay Sidewinder Fan. My wall outlet has two switches (one for the fixture where I want to put my fan and one to a different light in the other room). My fan has a light and a wall transmitter.
There is a black wire connected to the switch I want to use. That switch has another black wire linking over to the other switch. There is also a red wire connected to the switch I want to use. No red connected to the other switch. The transmitter has two black wires and a ground.
The fan/light has a transmitter that goes in the ceiling fan. This has a black wire,blue wire and a white wire. All 3 are supposed to hook up to the fan/light wires. This all connects easily. My problem is the Input on the transmitter has only a black wire and a white wire. My ceiling outlet has a black wire, a white wire and a red wire. Where do I connect the wires.
Thanks

These questions about the extra red wire keep coming up here. Usually if a switch has 2 black wires and a red one connected to it, it is one of a pair of 3 way switches either of which can control a light fixture. There are several different ways to wire them up.

If you are sure there isn't a second switch, disconnect the red wire and leave it. Connect all the power leads to the black wire, all the neutrals to the white, and all the grounds to ground. Either of the black wires from the transmitter may go to black, and the other to white. If it won't work, move the black wire that doesn't go to the other switch to the terminal the red wire was on.

Let me know how things work.
