I had a pre-existing light fixture that had a ceiling fan mounting box. When I removed the existing fixture, there were four wires. The fixture had a red and white wire hooked to it, a black wire which was capped, and a copper ground wire. The fan has a black, white, and green ground wire. I connected the black wires, the white wires, the ground wires, and capped the red wire. The fan now runs even if the light switch that used to control the fixture is off. Did I wire it incorrectly? Anyone have any ideas?

:confused: While working in the yard I noticed that I was getting a mild electrical shock when working around the post of our yard light if the ground was damp. Soon after this all the flowers I had in this area died. The light is joined into a circut from the house and when my husband replaced the ceiling fan and light that is on this circut it started blowing the breaker on a very regular basis and we would get a popping sound when it blew. (the breaker is now turned off at all times.) On this circut we have 1 cieling fan and light 4 other ceiling lights and several plug ins including the one we use for our TV. The wire to the yard light was run through plastic pipe. We do not know where to start looking for the problem, and have not recieved a single responce from multiple calls to 3 different electricians.
