    How do I wire a dual switch ceiling fan with a remote control. I am very confused.
    I have the old fan off and now I wired the new fan and it doesn't work. Can someone tell me what order the wires go. I have a red, white, black, and green coming out of the ceiling. This fan has a remote control that has to be wired in also.

    HELP!!

    You only need one wall switch with a remote. White in ceiling to white of fan. Red, or black from a switch to paired black and blue(if equipped, some do not have a blue), green to green. Other red or black capped off with a wire nut. You will need to keep 1 wall switch on, the other unconnected one will be off. Use remote. Didn't the fan come with instructions?
