    Hunter remote won't work
    HI, I have two separate Hunter fans with hand help remotes. On one of them the light ON/OFF switch won't work any more at all, but the fan ON/OFF switch is fine. And on the other its getter harder and harder to make the ON/OFF switch work while again the fan ON/OFF switch is fine. It starts with just needing to press the ON/OFF button harder and harder until finally it doesn't matter how hard I press it won't work.
    I have tried changing batteries, but it doenst make any difference, especially since the other features work fine.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    But both fans came with my house... have lived here about 1 year and both were fine when I moved in. And they have gone down hill since. I didn't buy the fans so I am just hoping to fix the problem... too may other more important problems keep coming up in this house to stress about new fans. (leaks, leaks and more leaks)

    Open it up, see if you can wash the plastic buttons, and blow air into the electrical parts to remove dust. If this doesn't work, contact Hunter Fan for a replacement remote.
