Are the Fan and light wires going to their own switch?
Black/white or blue is usually the lights wire, black usually fan. Verify connection or voltage in canopy.

No its all going to one switch. Since it didn't work with its own in wall control I bought a ceiling fan and light remote control and still the light turns on and dims but the fan doesn´t turn on

I would get the Fan working without any remotes before trying to add a remote/receiver.
You have light and fan wire connected to your switched power in canopy?

no no pull chains

Motor hums not very loud but if I put my ear to it I can hear it set on high

What is the model name of the fan?

What wires come from the fan, the remote, and the ceiling?

Well what I found out is that the fan motor doesn´t work I have another fan and that one works so I know its not the wiring from the house or a faultyremote

How do you know it is not a faulty remote? Because the other works? you need to get fan working without the remote first.
Can you say yet that you have 120 volts to the fan wire in canopy. Really could use the answers.
