Don't know the brand but the model is 5745 and the receiver is a CBB61. I need to bypass this receiver. Been having problems with it and it has gone out. Do not want to use a remote again. The receiver has 2 gray wires on one end and 1 purple wire, a red wire and a brown wire on the opposite end. The fan speed switch has 4 wires, purple, gray, orange and brown. The reverse direction level switch has six wires, white, 2 gray, 2 brown and orange. From the center of the fan is 3 thicker wires, black, white and blue. Also from the center of the fan are 3 thinner wires, brown, red and gray. Please help me rewire the fan to bypass the receiver for the remote.
Thank you
Rodney

Do you have pull chains? If not, how will you vary speed or turn the light on and off? With no pull chains, you would connect the black, white and blue directly to the house wiring but would need some switch for control.

Without a model it can be hard since there are no standards. I would try this. Black to fan is hot. Find its mate at the pull switch. You may have to try a couple do all speeds work. Light is simple, it is only on and off. That is the blue lead. White is not regulated so you shouldn't have to to anything. Take the blades off and you can work on it easier.
