I'm attempting to install an IR dimmer switch to control my harbor breeze ceiling fan (both light and fan). There are so many colored wires under the lamp bulb socket. I need to know if anyone has a description for what wires control what functions of the light and or fan so that I can hook up my dimmer control unit.
Basically, there is a black and a red wire coming from the wall socket. The fan canopy has many wires. For the fan part, it looks like there's an L-1-2-3 configuration. Gray-L, Red-1, Brown-2, Purple-3. It looks like there's a lone blue, a pair of yellow, a pair of orange, and a pair of white. There are black wires coming from the light side and looks like a lone white as well. I'm not really sure; there are two pull chains.
The IR wall plate configuration comes with a canopy module that has 4 wires. White is neutral, red is light, black is live, and yellow is fan. What do I do?
