I just puchased a Harbor Breeze ceiling fan w/ 2 lights(1 up) and remote control. I have 4 wires(black,white.red and bare) out of ceiling box. Remote has black and white on one side and black,white,blue,and orange on other which match those coming from fan. Do I need red from box to operate other light?
I capped red, connnected black,white ceiling to remote. Connected all others by color. No power.

What was there before the fan, and how were the wires connected? Do you have 2 switches that one controlled a light, and the other the fan? If so, to get power now, the switch connected to the black wire must be on. If you had 2 three way switches, the wires at the ceiling must be reconnected to the black and white wires of the remote just as they were to whatever was there before.

Thanks so much, your quick response help me finish this project.

I am presuming that labman's response solved your problem? I'm not entirely sure from your last post.

Just in case you need it, here is information on ceiling fan wiring:

But what he suggested is what I would have suggested.
