Ceiling fan
I have a ceiling fan which works with the remote. Light and fans turn off and on.
BUT
when i use bedroom wall switch to turn light on does not work?
Power is getting to ceiling fan as it works fine using remote but what is the issue when using wall switch?

With the wall switch in the off position does the remote work? As Tow Guy asked, did the light or fan ever work from the wall switch. In most cases the closest outlet is controlled by the wall switch. You need to know where the power is coming from to power the fan/light.

There are only a few manufacturers that use the "wall switch on - lights on" setup. Most fans need to have the wall switch left on and then use the remote control to turn on the lights.
You could get a second remote and mount it on the wall where the light switch is.
I have a Hunter fan and it uses the switch on - light on system.
