Casablanca W32 Fan and Light Switch Reversed

I installed a new W32 wall controller for a Casablanca fan and the Fan and Light switches are reversed. When I swap the black wires with white stripes as described in the installation manual, the switch is totally dead and does nothing. When I swap the black wires with white stripes back, it is fine except that the Fan and Light switches are reversed. Any help you could provide would be appreciated!

    We cannot get the fan to switch directions. The reverse button on the remote does not work and there is no manual way of switching the direction on the fan. The fan will only spin clock wise. We have tried switching remotes and when that did not work we exchaged for a new fan. Help!!!

    Please!!!

Check to see if the wiring at the fan is reversed - perhaps the neutral (typically white) & hot (typically black or red) are swapped.

If this is not the case, check to see if the neutral & hot are switched for the entire circuit.

I've never heard of the light and reverse buttons being reversed. Normally It's the fan and light thats swapped (but your aware of that already). I would try a working w-32 from one of the other fans. There's also a shop called Fan Man Lighting in Minnesota who has a guy named Jason who has been fixing fans for over 20 years, He helped me with my Casa problems. Their website is www.FanManLighting.com Hope this helps.

Casablanca Isatope 52 inch fan not working

You are exactly correct...

Power flows to the fan as soon as the circuit is closed.

All the light (diming) and motor power, speed & reverse are all
controlled by tones from the switch to a receiver inside the fan housing... (only 2 wires + ground).

I have BOTH (the old style 3 switch) and the newer 4 button "W32" ... use the same tones BUT ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE...

In my opinion
The premier site for ALL FAN switch troubles
is the "FAN-MAN" (see below).

Are the fans all on one main line just for the fans and are they plugged into a GFI receptacle. If so you may have to reset the GFi or maybe your electrical box needs to be reset.

I have a Casablanca New orleans fan that I just had fixed by an approved Casablanca repair place. The fan is and always has been connected to a dimmer switch. After a repair of a simple flywheel, the fan...

Hi, is this fan an older fan with the dimmer type control on the fan itself, (and you have a wall speed control in addition to) or is it the later fan with a three speed pull chain control? If the latter, the service rep may have accidentally placed the fan on Medium speed which due to additional capacitance from the speed control board in the switch housing, could cause the symptoms you describe.

Thanks, Brian

P.S. That's an $$$$ fan, glad to see you had it repaired instead of replaced.
