Power to the house went out. The fan no longer works. I checked the wall switch and it seems fine. What could go wrong with a fan?

Is it a remote fan? Does it have pullchains? How is it controlled?

If you remove an old ceiling fan, I may be interested in it, working or not. EMail me for details,

Yes, it is a remote.
Yes, has pull chains.
Controlled also by a wall switch for power.

Sounds like the power surge fried the remote receiver. Open it up at the ceiling and wire it without the remote, it should work.
