Using our Westinghouse Hayden ceiling fan Del Mar Fans and Lighting shows you how to change the frequency on your ceiling fan's remote control. Here's a list of steps to follow.
1. Make sure to turn the power off of your ceiling fan at the circuit breaker.
2. Detach your canopy from the mounting bracket by removing all screws.
3. Retrieve the receiver from the mounting bracket and locate the dip switch settings.
a. The dip switch settings look like four sliding buttons.
b. Using a ballpoint pen/small screwdriver to slide the buttons to create a new frequency combination.
4. Place the receiver back into your mounting bracket and attach the canopy to the mounting bracket.
5. Remove the back of your remote control and remove the battery.
6. Locate and remove the small panel covering your dip switches.
7. Use a ballpoint pen/small screwdriver to slide the buttons to match your receiver's frequency.
8. Place back panel and remote back.
9. Restore power to your ceiling fan.
10. Verity settings are correct by turning ceiling fan on/off.

I am a 69 year old woman who knows nothing about ceiling fans. I broke my remote and ordered a new one. When it came I expected it to work.....it did not. I knew nothing about setting or changing a frequency on a ceiling fan remote. I did not know they had one. This video enabled me to fix my remote and taught me about ceiling fan remotes. Thank you so much!!!! I give you the highest rating I can 10 Gold Stars
That's awesome Brenda! So happy we could help :)
*Love it! Keeps the room very **Fastly.Cool** . The manual states it comes with a year warranty and 5 year part replacement. The compressor makes the typical sound...small price to pay for AC.*
Looks great, and with a brighter bulb installed that’s all the light you need. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxWF88GpljEn-0o34vtLFazEQ5h5Q33SjU As far as ease of installation- this was my first ceiling fan and it took about 3 hours because I had no idea what I was doing and also it’s helpful to have a second set of hands and a magnetic drill bit. Works great.
We thought we were doomed to ceiling fan chaos in the four rooms with identical fans in our new townhouse! Thank you for getting to the point and giving clear, knowledgable information.
Thank you for such an easy fix, the hardest part is climbing the ladder. BRAVO!
you saved me a trip up the ladder to the fan receiver. I had to replace wall remote. I was ready to take off the canopy but then realized that I can just look at old broken remote and change the dip-switch setting on the new one. Easy and it works!
Short, fast, and right to the point with all the helpful information needed. Thank you!
Thank you! My neighbors bought a ceiling fan and we were driving each other crazy. Now I can easily fix it!
This saved our lives. Our fan remote wasn't working anymore. We changed the batteries and nothing. Thank you!
Our ceiling fans have been coming on over and over at night time, waking each of us up in our house ever since our renovation 2 years ago. Who knew that this could be so simple to fix. A huge thank you for explaining this.
Sounds like you had a ghost. Pretty sure it’s definitely a ghost.
Short, sweet, and to the point. Thank you, sir!
This was VERY helpful and I changed all my ceiling fan frequencies today! I am in close proximity to my neighbor and apparently we were switching each others fan.
Great video! We had two same model fans installed in different rooms in our apartment and realized that the remotes were overriding each other when we had a guest visit. This video showed me how to fix! Thank you!
Thank you so much! Simple, straightforward and easy to follow.
People who install fans should watch this
Hi, this video was really helpful to me after we had 4 fans installed that all worked on the same frequency. The instructions were very clear but when I pulled out the little box in the fan to reset the frequency I realised it didn't look the same as in the video, there was just some tiny holes in that spot. After some initial panic I called the manufacturer to find out if there was a part missing. They explained that the box in my ceiling fans has a special kind of memory so I just needed to change the frequency in each remote and pair it with the fan while power was off to all the other fans. It was very simple but I just wanted to let other people know in case they end up in a similar situation and are confused like I was. Our fans are Minka Aire brand. Thanks!
OMG! This what makes YT so great is folks like you helping us husbands look like scholars when telling our wives” oh, I finally just figured it out myself how to set the codes”
yeah right!!
Thanks so much!
I fixed my ceiling fanlight in a minute that has been off a year! Thanks man!
I canNOT thank you enough for this! I have zero DIY skills--none, but I did it. I haven't been able to use my fan for almost four years because of this. 100 different people told me all I could do was get a new fan. I. Did. It!!
EXACTLY what I was looking for, and THANK YOU for being so concise and too the point so I didn't have to watch an unnecessarily long video.
We just moved into a new condo and the fan light and fan were going on "all by themselves"!! I looked out the window and the neighbor was sitting a room just 25ft away and the ceiling fan and light were on. I think we're on the same frequency. Thanks for this video, we'll be able to fix it in a few minutes!
Definitely my issue. I am in a condo as well and when I had my electrician install my fan I never considered that any neighbor would have a ceiling fan with the same frequency. I guess there is just a default setting (all zeroes perhaps). Well now I am going to fix that by changing my frequency!
Thank you. You saved me $60 bucks that I was about to spend on a new remote. There are a lot of remote controls in the house and now I understand how they interfere with each other.
Our fan stopped responding to the remote. I followed your instructions and adjusted both to a different setting and voila! Problem solved. Thanks.
You are a Genius, I have never heard of pushing reset button within 30 sec after turn power off , fixed the problem , thank you 🙏
Thanks so much!! The fan I have came with my new home, no instruction booklet. This was a life saver!!! Keep up the great work!!
We just replaced a substandard ceiling fan with a unit that will accommodate the size of the room .in the process we learned that the new remote was turning on ceiling fans in our office and one of our bedrooms. Your video was straight to the point and very concise thank you for the help
Awesome!!! I didn't even have to remove the housing. Just opened the remote control and moved the one tab that was up into the down position and it worked. Thank you for the help.
Awesome! My handyman installed a second ceiling fan in my guestroom by the same manufacturer (Minka Aire) and neglected to change the frequency so now it's in sync with the Minka dining room fan. I have a houseguest coming in two days and my handyman can't get back to change it before then. Now I know how it's done and I believe I can do it myself. Thank you so much!!
Turns out that my situation was even easier. I bought Minka Aire fans and you can switch out the code from the remote without ever having to take off the housing. You just take off the battery cover to the remote, reconfigure the code by pushing the pins into a new pattern and then with the power on, press the middle button of the remote and hold it down for 10 seconds until the fan light flashes, which tells you the code has been reset.
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I can't believe it took me 4 years to finally look for the solution to this annoying problem. So easy. 😅
Same here! Took me three years!
Ty very much. I’m an electrician but a commercial electrician. My mom asked me to fix her friends ceiling fan because it kept turning on and off. I’ve never ran into this problem thanks for your help.
Yours is the only demo I found that actually shows how to change the frequency setting. Thank You!
+BJ Laskoskie So glad we could help! -Alexa
bro you are the man!! I work as a maintenance tech at an apartment complex and your videos are a great help for my job. Thanks for posting videos to help dummies like me
So glad we can help Rafael! :)
Thank you so much! I had an extra remote, and with your video, I was able to reset my remote to replace a broken one for my ceiling fan.
Thank you for concise instructions that are very easy to understand. Excellent!!
Dr. Colby, where have you been all my life?!?
Thank You
Thank You
Thank You
This was very helpful and worked. I still cant control my light yet but the fan now works. Maybe the light will start working at some point. Thanks.
Thank you. Didn’t even think to look inside the remote.
Great tip! After a couple of years of 2 fan going on/off at the same time (not desired...) I was able to correct the glitch. If any electrical need will arise, will make sure to bring our business to you. Happy Labor Day Weekend.
Awesome. I have two kids rooms next to each other and same fans in each room and they are having magic as if I operate remote in one room other room fan is turning on too. I will try this to change. Thank you!
Great simple video, worked perfectly. Thanks!
thanks so much it worked after sooo long the fan feels so good and better than ever
Thank you so much! I was so annoyed by the fact that the fan installation guy didn't even bother to switch the frequency for all THREE fans in my family house! Every time when either one of us presses on the remote, it affects the other two fans in other rooms.
Same here, got some work to do after work today. So annoying installation was so sloppy.
Thank you so much! My light was turning on in the middle of the night and making me crazy. This is SO helpful!
thank you! someone has the same frequency set in their fan and has been driving us nuts!! you're the man!! thanks again!
Thanks, I have to buy 4 fans for a rental property on Cape Cod and was wondering how people could control the fan/light in their room. Life just got easier.
Thanks for the video. It was clear, concise and extremely helpful!
Thank you, I thought it was going to be much harder than that. our neighbor has a fan/light that is on our frequency so at 4 in the the lights go on, awwwwww. so this is great. thanks again.

Most helpful ceiling fan information website out there.
THANK U SO MUCH!! I dont have that brand but the universal directions are so helpful!!
You made it very simple to follow. Thank you
Thank you - mystery dispelled!
Thanks for the tip, great video short and very well explained.
Thank you so much! Glad I learned how to do this, and it worked fine!
Thanks. I have 3 of the exact same fans with remotes and they were all operating in unison if the wall switch was on. This resolves that problem. Good video.
quick, simple, easy to follow instructions, thanks!
So glad you found this so helpful LMT94550!!
Thank you. So simply and usefully explained.
Thank you. We have a different make but your tips helped fix that one too saving us over $100
Koby a big hug and a thank you for this video.
Thank you for taking the time to make and publish this video - very helpful!
Our remote stopped working and even after installing a new battery..nothing. Before replacing the whole remote unit, I thought i'd attempt a change in frequency. That's when I noticed the switches were fully engaged at the proper setting. After resetting them, it worked like new. The only thing I could think of is, the remote may have been dropped or bumped.
Since the battery is very near them, I'm guessing it bumped into the switches at some point, enough to change my setting. So, it may be a good idea to re-check those before buying a new unit. Thanks for the video!
Thank you! Excellent clear video!
Great video. Very concise, clean and friendly.
Love it that’s what I was looking for almost a year ago
The instructions were precise and easy. Thanks
Video was concise and easy to follow, only problem is my Harbor Breeze ceiling fan remote has no toggle switches behind the battery. Fan is only a year old so shouldn't be an age issue...not sure what to do now??
There is a “synching” that takes place when you initially set-up the remote. Please call our Customer Service @ 800-724-5501 & they will be more than happy to help you solve your problem!
Hi Colby. The ceiling fan I have is not the same make. Are the frequency switches usually located like the one that you show in your video, under the base by the ceiling? Thanks for your help!
Just wanted to say t h a n k s for your video! I can't believe the installer didn't think about this. I called and told him my ceiling fan was crazy and he told me that it should be damaged from factory... geez!
Thank you sooooooo much I have solve my problem by watching your video.
SUPER HELPFUL, and thank you for not rambling about miscellaneous stuff at the beginning like everyone else does, haha. Best video I've watched in ages.
Thanks for this. I was able to get my parent's fan restarted.
Excellent and quick explanation! Thanks!!
You are a life saver, was ready to buy another fan system.
Thank you for the video! I had a handyman to install 2 remotes in my house in different rooms. He didn't bother or didn't know to change the frequencies so the remotes wouldn't control both of the fans so I now I will try to fix this myself.
So frustrating! Paid an electrician and then he left them both on the same frequency!🤦🏻♀️
just learned something new again, thank you so much. new friend here. God Bless!
Excellent analysis of a common remote control problem.
Thank you, Charles! We're glad it was helpful for you. -Kyleigh

Barby Reyes What is "qw"?
Perfect instructions! Took max of 5 minutes!
Thanks for making this video. My remote dropped and knocked the frequency off and I thought the modules went.
great, simple, complete, i will attempt replacing our missing remote today with a universal remote...
thank you
I love you! You resolve my problem! Good bless you!!
Liked the way you explained it!
Easy to follow & understand. Thanks.
Thanks for the advice, had my fan running again in less than 5 minutes!
You da man... We could've done without the ladder part- we knew we needed one.
Thanks; it was a simple fix and saved a lot of aggravation and cash...
Worked like a charm, thanks.
Thank you very much. I fixed my non-working remote using this.
Really helpful video, my remote and cealing fan are not identical to the one in the video, but it is the same concept. Thank you so much...
Thank you! I moved into a new place and the remote did not work and this tutorial fixed it.
Clear & concise. Thanks!
Thank you for making this video :) was getting kind of frustrating.
This is an excellent video. What do you suggest for a 32, 4 story apartment building? We realize there are only 16 possible combinations. We've had issues with the "ghost" turning on lights. How far apart should same codes be?
I have an older fan, with no switch to reverse the fan blades. I also have the same remote that you showed in this video. I need to reverse the blades. I have tried to change the little switches inside the remote, but then the fan does not work. Can you help me please?
You can just change the dipswitch settings to any frequency?
thank you, this information really helps
Thank you so much. My fan wasn't working at all. Their remotes were clashing . Now both are working, but one won't do the high setting. Any solutions?
Can you please tell me what the little house button on the left of the older Hampton breeze white remote is? My light stopped working last night but I just replace the lightbulb about two years ago. I didn’t know if there was something on the remote they could actually turn the light off other than the middle button?
Yay you. I can do this. Fast easy to do instructions and understand. Thanks a gazillion.
You are awesome thank you this was very helpful
Just what I needed to know! Thanks 🙏🏼
Does this work with 2 fans with separate remotes but the same power circuit for both fans?
Creating different dip switch codes?
