Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Turn off the power to the ceiling fan at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

2. Remove the canopy from the ceiling fan. The canopy is the decorative cover that is attached to the ceiling and hides the electrical connections. It is usually held in place by a few screws.

3. Locate the receiver wires. The receiver wires are the wires that are connected to the ceiling fan motor. They are usually labeled with different colors, such as black, white, and red.

4. Connect the remote control wires to the receiver wires. The remote control wires are usually labeled with the same colors as the receiver wires. Connect the black wire to the black wire, the white wire to the white wire, and the red wire to the red wire.

5. Secure the wire connections with wire nuts. Wire nuts are small plastic caps that are used to connect electrical wires together. Twist the wire nuts onto the wire connections until they are tight.

6. Wrap the wire connections with electrical tape. Electrical tape is used to insulate the wire connections and prevent them from shorting out.

7. Reattach the canopy to the ceiling fan.

8. Turn on the power to the ceiling fan at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
