The fan switch I bought doesnt have the wire. I have to stab it. I had a blue and black wire. The old swich doesnt have numbers saying where which wire goes where. Guess I will put Black wire in L 1 and blue wire in L 2?? Plus im working with stranded wire. Hopefully the stranded wire will stay in if not guess I have to make jumpers with solid wire. I have 12 years electeical experience but cant honestly say Ive changed out a ceiling fan light switch. Hopefully all goes well. If not I will return to lowes and get the one with the wires already in it. Good video. Wish me luck!!
To connect the 2 wires from new fan light switch to the fan/ceiling, it doesn't matter which wire goes to which?!?! (my light switch chain won't move at all, broken?)
@@frankpeck1448 WD stands for Water Displacement. WD40 was developed for military vehicles because they get wet. With the old distributor caps and spark plug wires, water was a constant concern. WD 40 was designed to repel moisture because it's a hydrophobic lubricant. Bit of trivia for ya...
Can y'all like fix shit instead of replacing parts? These videos are so disappointing anymore. No one knows how to fix shit anymore. They just replace replace replace.

Super helpful! Straightforward explanation and demonstration. 5 years later and this video is still helping folks out 🙌
Thank you!! This video helped me so much! Your explanation and video showed me exactly what I needed to do to fix my light switch.
My pleasure
Good info, most people would rather spend 200$. We live in a throw away world now.
My OCD kicked in when I saw the bulbs, lol
Just like they do with cars! People these days
Ok
Nice how to video. Constructive criticism: it's a switch, not a relay. The title of the video is right though.
Thank you for the information ❤❤❤❤
Your welcome

Does it have to be the same relay for it to work
As long as look the same and it is 6A/125V Ac .
To connect the 2 wires from new fan light switch to the fan/ceiling, it doesn't matter which wire goes to which?!?! (my light switch chain won't move at all, broken?)
Yes it is broken and You need to replced the relay .
The light has a pull chain, and the fan has a pull chain. Do they share the same switch compartment?
I just need to kno how to open the damn thing
I bought the switch, got home, and there is no nut on the switch and no screws around the sides. 😤
I left the power on cause i go hardcore
Replace wall switch
How to replace a wall switch
Very simple.
I will make one video soon.
Inflation has that switch at about 9 dollars
OMG!
I think I have to chang my title every year now 🙃
Next
First
Don't replace it... spray WD-40 up into the switch
If the plastic of the switch is broken instead of just stuck, WD-40 won't help. Learned this from experience, sadly.
@@silkytp789 Thank you...
WD40 will dissolve some plastics...be careful!
