    Remote control ceiling fan dual switch
    I just installed a Hunter ceiling fan with a remote control. I have dual switches on the wall right next to each other - one controls light power and the other fan power. I have 3 romex wires entering/leaving the outlet box. Two have one black, white and copper wire each and the other has a red, black, white and copper wire. All white wires are wired together as well as the grounds. The 2 black wires from the 2 romex cables without the red are wired together. The red and black from the romex with the red are wired to the black from the receiver, labeled "live-in".

    I would like to be able to turn the light on at the wall switch and fan too, if possible, but most importantly the light. The light will work only with the remote and doesn't matter if the wall switch is on or off. The fan will only work with the remote and also only if the fan wall switch is on.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks.
