View Full Version : Can't turn off my ceiling fan
I have a Hunter-Douglas (Home Depot) ceiling fan in my office.
It has one of those chain "puller" switches to adjust the speed and to
turn it on or off. As I was turning on the fan, the chain pulled out
and now I can't turn the fan off because there is no other switch (that
I know of) to turn it off.
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sy

shut off the breaker - remove, repair or replace fan switch or the whole
fan.

That seems like much too simple an answer for such a complicated
problem! LOL!
