House was built in 1986. The light fixture on the light post built up some rust, so I replaced it. It comes on automatically at night and off in the morning, and was working fine, then just stopped. The wiring is fine and the bulbs are fine, so not sure why it would just stop working. I cannot find a switch that I need to "flip", so wonder if there some kind of sensor that would tell the light to turn on at night and off in the morning that is broken? What controls this light? Thanks -b

Good Evening, I am trying to replace my ceiling fan. Turned the breaker off. I have the fan pretty much put together, but the wiring is getting the best of me. I have 2 switches on the wall. One for the light and 1 for the fan. My instructions do not tell me how to connect these so that my wall switches work. My house was building the early 80. From the circuit of my house i have a black wire, red wire and white wire. I do not see a copper wire. What is the red wire for? I hace connect the black waire from circuit to black remote control unit. Then the white from circuit to the white from remote control. Then I connected the black from remote to black fan. The white from remote control to the white on the ceiling fan. The blue from the remote control unit to the blue to the fan. Then I also connected the light kit, black to black and white to white. Now my question is what is the Red wire from the circuit box for? I dont know what to connect it to if any?? Your help is greatly appreciated.:o
