    Are there two switches in the room that work the fan and light?

    The reversing switch should not be in the service in circuit.

    I suggest that you check the wiring again. Service In should be provided by a black wire to the fan. The light package usually is feed via a blue wire or a stripped black/white wire.

    Make sure the leads are connected properly.
