PLEASE HELP I already have the dimmer swich in wall to the ceiling fan. It worked great till I had to replace the fan pull swich the all went south. The ceiling can light fixture came unwired when I was woriking with the fan swich and have no clue were the blace and white wires go I wired the white with the white and black with the blue the light came on but would not dim . The wires I have coming from ceiling are the single ones that are not wired to any other wires yet till I figure out the fan pull swich are black, red, 2 blue, and the wires that are cunected to another wire are the purple connected to purple one that is sodered to the reverse swich, white wire from ceiling conectes to the 2 white wires from the fan reverse swich and 2 blue wires from reverse swich are connected together

Hi,

Typically I recommend this wiring guide (http://www.ceiling-fans-n-more.com/ceiling-fan-wiring.php) to most new members... it has all the different wire colors. Let me know if that helps
