    Wireing a ceiling fan
    I am trying to connect my ceiling fan, however the color off the wires don't match. I have 3 wires coming out of the ceiling (1 red, 1 white and 1 blue) there are several wires coming from the ceiling fan. It is a Harbor Breeze that has a remote. Can you please help me figure this out?
    Thanks

    Where are you located? I would expect the ceiling wires to black, red and white. Are You in US? Is the ceiling fixture controlled by a switch?

    Blue is probably a black that has faded. I don't think Harbor Breeze is sold in 240vAC.
