Wiring – How to install a ceiling fan remote

The "Common Out" lead on the old receiver module, is simply a grounded (neutral) conductor. Since the new receiver doesn't have this lead. You'll want to connect the white wire from the fixture, together with the white wire from the ceiling, and the white (neutral in) wire from the new receiver.

The new wiring should be connected as follows:

• Ungrounded (hot) conductor from ceiling to Live In wire on receiver.
• Grounded (neutral) conductor from ceiling to 'Neutral Inon receiver, andCommon` from fixture.
• Light Out on receiver to light (blue) wire on fixture.
• 'Fan Out` on receiver to fan (black) wire on fixture.
• All grounding (green, bare, etc.) conductors should be connected together, and connected to the ceiling box if it's a metal box.

Yes, it's definitions possible that the black with white stripe is the same as blue. Though you might find that the black is blue, and the black with white stripe is black.

In either case it won't matter, if you get it wrong you'll just have to switch them.
