Trying to connect a ceiling fan light kit. I connected the blue wire from the fan kit to the black wire in the light kit and then connected the white wire from the fan kit to the white wire in the light kit. Lights will not work... The fan works but still no lighting. Wires are connected with the supplied wire connectors. Any suggestions? I have a Hampton Bay 5 blade fan that was alpready installed. Light kit is a universal kit model 110 447 for Hampton Bay ceiling fans. Appreciate any help !!

The red wire is the hot wire for your light so connect it to the black wire on your light. The white neutral wire should connect to your other white wires on fan power wires.

The colors of the wires in the Harbor Breeze ceiling fan kits tell you what their functions are. The black wire is hot for the fan, the white is a common wire for both the fan and the light kit, green is ground and blue is hot for the light kit. locate the black and blue wires from the ceiling fan and connect them to the black wire inside the electrical junction box by twisting an orange wire connector onto all three wires. Locate the white wire from the ceiling fan and the white wire from the junction box and attach the two wires together with a wire connector. Connect the bare copper wire onto the green wire from the ceiling fan mounting bracket by twisting an orange wire connector onto the two wires. Push all wiring inside the electrical box. good-day !

A ceiling fan requires a neutral wire (white), a ground wire (green), a hot wire for the fan (black), and on fans with light kits a hot wire for the lights (blue). These examples will assume that a lighting kit is going to be used, but if it is not terminations to the blue wire are not required and the circuit is greatly simplified The ceiling fan and light can also be wired through switches. When a single switch is used to connect to the ceiling fan and light the ceiling fan (black) and light (blue) would both be connected to the switched black wire. In this configuration turning the switch on would power both the light and ceiling fan. In order to turn just one off, the pull strings would have to be used. The problem with this approach, is that when the pull strings have been used to turn the light or ceiling fan off, turning the switch back on will not work until the pull string is pulled again .
The ceiling fan and light can also be wired through two switches. This would generally be two separate switches, one for the fan and one for the light. This would generally be a 3 conductor w/ground coming from the switch box. The ceiling fan (black) wire would connect to the switched black wire from the ceiling fan switch, the light wire (blue) would connect to the switched red wire from the light switch and the neutral (white) and ground (bare) would connect to the their associated wires..

If you nare adding a light kit to the base of a ceiling fan, you will connect the blue and black wires together ,, and then the two white wires ..

Blue, is usually international color for the NEUTRAL wire. EUROPE BROWN==PHASE BLUE===NEUTRAL Green/Yellow stripe==EARTH. (Most important wire)
USA. BLACK==PHASE WHITE==NEUTRAL GREEN/BARE==EARTH (Most important wire)

connect white wire from light kit to white wire labeled "for light" then connect black wires from light kit filter to blue wire from fan. Use wire nuts to make the connections

connect the white wires from light kit filter to the white wire labeled "for light" from fan. then connect black wire from light kit filter to blue wire from fan. use wire nuts to make the connections

Remove the fan, attach the blue wire with the black in the ceiling box and your light will work.

Hi, At the fan you'll have a black wire, blue wire, green wire and white wire.
In the ceiling you'll have a black wire, a white wire, and a bare copper wire. If you are using the same wall switch to turn on all of the power to the fan AND the light, connect as follows:
White at ceiling to white from fan
Black at ceiling to black and blue together from fan.
Bare copper wire at ceiling to green wire from fan.

When connected like this, the main power is from the switch, and the fan and light may be set by the pull switches on the fan.

blue would be your earth.
black and white are phase and neutral.

for the wiring in your roof you need to call a local sparky. just ask which is which and connect them appropriately.
