    Hampton Bay fan light not working
    I have a fan with 5 lights. One of the lights burned out and I changed it with an identical light bulb. I cannot get the lights to come on. I have a dimmer switch that operates both the fan and its lights. I am wondering if there is a fuse in the fan somewhere or if I should start with the dimmer switch on the wall. Any suggestions?

    Now NONE of the lights will come on?

    Is it a remote fan?

    Check all of the connections, and try bypassing the dimmer switch as well.

    So since the dimmer switch controls lights and fan is the fan working

    There should not be any fuse in the fan for the lights -- if you lost

    Power check dimmer or breaker... Replacing bulb usually doesn't

    Cause problems -- may have problem with light wiring...

    The other thing to consider is that a dimmer switch is

    Not supposed to be used with ceiling fans or the new

    Energy saving neon bulbs...
