    Hunter ceiling fan pull chain replacement
    I replaced the three speed pull chain unit on my Hunter ceiling fan. Now I have four speeds and no "off".

    The wire colors were black, grey, brown and green.

    Any ideas?

    Did you use an OEM Hunter switch?

    Probably not the correct switch. Get the correct one from Hunter Fan - Ceiling Fans, Air Purifiers, Humidifiers, Thermostats
