    Ceiling fan switch
    I have a Hampton Bay Ceiling Fan. The on/off pull switch for the fan needs to be replaced. There are 4 wires to the switch but when I opened the fan, two of the wires came out of the switch so I don't know where they belong. Can anyone help me. The switch itself has letters on it so it must indicate where each of the colored wires go. Please help :confused:

    What colors do you have? What colors are still connected, and to what?

    I don't have a record of that combination. Contact Hampton Bay and see if they know. If not, we'll do some trial and error.
