Connecting a new Hunter Fan and replacing an old one. Green ground to green ground, white to white, black to black, red ceiling wire to black/white striped wire. Using only one wall switch which, when tested, controls the new ceiling light in the fan perfectly.. . I just can't get the fan to spin when the light is on or off. Should I forget the red ceiling wire and connect the black/white striped wire to black also?

Thanks

Mike D.

Hi,

Try this wiring guide (http://www.ceiling-fans-n-more.com/ceiling-fan-wiring.php), I just recommended it to another newer member

Let me know if it helps

Good luck

That red wire coming from the ceiling box tells me there may be a second switch or a 3 way switch. Is that possible, what was up there before, a light and fan?
