Reply to comment by CodyCodyCody in Replacing a light switch. Can I DIY or call for help? by CodyCodyCody

And I'm sure you've checked, but fans usually have a pull switch for the light. Make sure that hasn't been pulled, just in case. I know I've done that before

Yeeeeeeeah I just found the remote for the fan and turned the lights on. Everything seems to work now! Though, the lights still work without the red switch on, but it works so I don’t think I should mess with it any more than I have lol

That just means the black line runs everything at the fan. But if you want the switch to work, you'll just have to open up the fan and split the wires off from being tied together is all. The red wire is likely there from a previous install and simply capped off inside the fan currently.

Glad you got it working instead of having to call someone though. Congrats
