    How do you change RF signal on Hampton Bay (#55295) fan?
    Hi,

    I have the Hampton Bay model #55295 with the remote.. the problem is that we have 2 of them in rooms next to each other so we constantly turn each other's on or off. I'm trying to find the RF swich on the fan, but I can't find it anywhere (on the fan). Does anyone know how to change it on the fan?

    You need to change the tiny dip switches on both the remote hand unit and the fan. Open the remote first and look for 4-5 very small slide switches, they are either on or off. Your fan has a similar set bof mswitches with the same on/off sequence setting. Just change one switch on both the remote and the fan. The fan switches may be in the canopy nearer the ceiling.

    I know about the remote... I just can't find the fan one... I think it might be right in the center. There's a circular disc, like a small plastic can. I think it's in there because it's attached to a few wires. I can't seem to open it though :confused: It doesn't make it easy that my ceiling is over 15 foot and I only have a 6 foot ladder either

    That disc or can sounds like to attachment point for a light kit. It might be there on some models but you need a better ladder. Don't get yourself injured because you didn't have the right equipoment.

    It may be at ceiling under canopy. Leave the higher one alone. Change code on lower
    Of the 2 fans.

    The receiver is either in the ceiling canopy, in the switch housing (where the light mounts), or inside the motor housing.
