Confirm that the remote is transmitting
- Try moving your ceiling fan remote from one room to another, and if it works in another room, then it’s likely that it’s not that the remote is defective.
- Try different batteries
It’s possible that the batteries in the remote control have discharged. So, try to change the old batteries with new ones. - Check the battery contacts
Sometimes, due to faulty battery contacts, the remote control may not function properly. So, clean the terminals of the battery contacts with electronics cleaner and check for any improvements. - Replace the remote’s lens
