About the Harbor Breeze RDS44MW5LR Receiver

The Harbor Breeze Reidsport 44-in with the matte white finish is model RDS44MW5LR. A dead remote with a good battery usually points to the receiver, not the fan. Our replacement brings back three fan speeds plus off and full light dimming.

Match the RDS44MW5LR on your fan's label to this page and you can order with confidence. Pairing takes one button and about 30 seconds.

  • Learning-code pairing, no DIP switches
  • Runs at 304.25 MHz
  • Dimmable light control
  • Connects with wire nuts

Pairing a new remote later

Because this receiver learns its remote, you can repeat the setup any time. If a remote is lost or broken, get one that pairs with this receiver, cycle the power and hold 0 until the light blinks twice. No DIP switches to match and no codes to look up.

About the frequency

The receiver works at 304.25 MHz. Matching frequency alone is not enough, though, because the remote also has to speak the same learning-code language. Stick with one of the listed remotes and you will not have to guess.

Before you order

  • Some fans came with a plug-in receiver that has a square plug instead of wire-nut leads. Contact us if yours has a plug.

Setup & Pairing

  1. Switch off the breaker that feeds the RDS44MW5LR, then confirm the power is off.
  2. Remove the canopy cover and unhook the old receiver, keeping track of every wire.
  3. Connect the new receiver with wire nuts the same way the old one was connected.
  4. Switch off other ceiling fans in the area so they stay out of the pairing.
  5. Bring the power back and press and hold the remote's 0 button within about 30 seconds; let go when the light blinks twice.
  6. Check every speed, then turn the light on, off and dim it.

Tip: a helper at the breaker makes the 30-second pairing window easy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this replacement receiver for the Harbor Breeze RDS44MW5LR fit my ceiling fan?

It fits the 1 model listed under Compatible Models on this page. If your model isn’t listed, call us at (816) 586-8457 and we’ll check for you.

Is there a warranty?

Yes. Every receiver comes with our 1-year warranty.

Will a new receiver fix a wobbly fan?

No. Wobble comes from blades or mounting hardware. The receiver only restores remote control of speed and light.

Can I pair a different remote later?

Yes, as long as it is one of the listed learning-code remotes. Cycle the power and hold 0 until the light blinks twice.

How long does the swap take?

Most people finish in under an hour. Lowering the canopy and reconnecting the wires takes the longest; pairing takes about 30 seconds.

Is this an original Harbor Breeze part?

No. It is a Comfort Direct replacement receiver, built to restore remote control of the fan and light.

When will my order ship?

In-stock orders placed by 4 PM, Monday to Friday, ship the same business day.
