1117027 Ceiling Fan Receiver for Harbor Breeze

About the Harbor Breeze 1117027 Receiver

Item 1117027 is how Lowe's lists this Harbor Breeze ceiling fan on receipts and boxes. The motor in a fan like this usually outlasts the receiver, so a dead remote rarely means a dead fan. Our replacement brings back three fan speeds plus off and full light dimming.

Check your Lowe's receipt or the fan box: if it shows item 1117027, this is the one you need. Pairing takes one button and about 30 seconds.

• Light on/off and dimming
• Connects with wire nuts
• Simple wire-nut hookup
• Pairs in about 30 seconds by holding one button

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.

Wire-nut tips

Hold the wire ends side by side, push the wire nut on and twist clockwise until it is snug. Give each wire a gentle tug to confirm it is held, and make sure no bare copper shows below the nut. A wrap of electrical tape adds extra security in a tight canopy.

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

Here is the whole job, start to finish.

1. Cut power at the breaker panel, not just the wall switch.
2. Drop the canopy, unscrew the wire nuts on the old receiver and note each connection.
3. Wire in the new receiver lead for lead, following your photo, and twist each wire nut snug.
4. Power down any other nearby fans first; otherwise they could pair to the same remote.
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. Run all three speeds and try the light and dimming.
