    3 separate fans all responding to each other's remotes!
    I just installed 3 separate ceiling fans, and used this 40' Harbor Breeze remote on each of them:

    Harbor Breeze 40' Range Handheld Ceiling Fan Remote

    The fans respond to each others' remotes in odd, unpredictable combinations. Since the rooms are close together, this is very annoying.

    It's clear that some seem to be on different frequencies--some remotes work in other rooms, others don't--but I can't find any dip switches inside of the battery compartment. There's a screw there, but the case doesn't give easily and I don't want to break it. Does anyone know how to change the frequencies on these, or if it's even possible? The manual doesn't have anything.
