Hello!

I just bought a Harbor Breeze 42 in. Chesire ceiling fan. I uninstalled my previous light fixture from my ceiling and there was 3 white wires connected together and 1 red wire coming down from the ceiling. The actual light fixture had a black and brown wire. My ceiling fan has 3 wires that need to be connected and they are black, blue, and white, and also there is a green ground wire hooked up to the mounting bracket. I would like to know where the 3 wires should be hooked up. I did not try to connect any wires from the ceiling fan to the 2 wires coming down from the ceiling because I do not want to fry all my circuits in the house. Would someone please help me out, so I can finish my installation. Thanks in advance for your help.

Black and blue to red, white to all the whites.

Thanks a million ceilingfanrepair, I really needed to know that, but where would I hook up the ground wire? There is a ground wire attached to the mounting bracket. There are no other wires in the ceiling, I looked for them and nothing was there. Please do reply as soon as possible!

Since the bracket attaches to a metal box, it is already grounded. If the fan has another ground wire you connect the two together.

Oh I see, well thanks a lot for all the help. I installed the ceiling fan and it works just fine. Have a great day and its nice to get advice from a professional who does not charge an arm and a leg for instructions!

Oh you can still pay me. :)

Haha! That's kind of cruel!

I hope not!

Connect the white wire from the fan to all 3 whites, the black and blue wire from the fan to the red.

Hello,

The ceiling fan I am replacing has a black wire, white wire and copper wire coming out of the ceiling. What does the copper wire attach to.

Thank you,
Greg
