Wiring ceiling fan/light in new home
I'm installing a fan/light. There are two switches on the wall. Assuming one for light - other for fan. In the ceiling box there's a RED wire. Investigation tells me that it's for the light kit. BUT in the instructions for the fan it's telling me to connect the fan's blue & black wire to the house Black... Doesn't tell me what to do with the RED.
One forum said to twist the red 'with' the black. I did, but BOTH switches operated BOTH the fan and the light..
not sure how to wire the light kit. tks!!
