We bought a house with Hunter remote control fans in every room. We cannot figure out how to make them come on. I replaced the battery in the remote however just the light comes on on the remote when I click a button... can somebody please tell me the secret to this remote control and is there anyway to bypass the remote so that the fan comes on with the switch?

Ginny,

I need some help here, please.

Are you trying to use the same remote on all of the fans or are you using a remote for each room?

My first suggestion would be to notate the switch settings on the remote,then slide the switches back and forth to make sure they are clean.

Next, I would make sure that the switches for the fan match the switches on the remote.

I am not sure if all Hunter fans use the same "Ir" code freqs. but I will try to find that out.
