About the Honeywell 51473 Remote

Honeywell 51473 is the matte black Xerxes, a 62-inch fan. This replacement remote runs it on high, medium or low, stops it with a separate off button, and dims the light. You can pair it with the Learn button or with the High and Low method from the owner's manual.

We made this remote for the 51473, and it pairs with the receiver without tools. The whole job is a trip to the wall switch, a 5-second hold of Learn, and a quick test of each button. The High and Low method from the owner's manual works too.

  • Dedicated High, Medium and Low buttons and its own fan off button
  • Learns the receiver already in your fan with the Learn button
  • Includes a wall cradle and screws for a fixed home

Homes with several fans

If two fans of the same type are powered during pairing, both may learn the new remote. Switch off every fan except the one you're pairing, at the wall or the breaker. Pair each fan with its own remote, one at a time, and then restore power to the rest.

If pairing doesn't take

Most failed pairings come down to timing. Count the 30 seconds from the moment power comes back, and hold Learn for a full 5 seconds. Put in a new battery if the remote seems weak. If several careful tries fail, have the fan's receiver checked.

Before you order

  • No receiver is included. Your fan's original receiver needs to be working.

Setup & Pairing

  1. Put one 12V A23 battery in the 51473 remote, matching the + and - marks.
  2. Have other similar fans switched off at the wall before you begin.
  3. Switch the fan off at its wall switch or breaker, wait a few seconds, and restore power.
  4. Inside 30 seconds of power returning, keep the Learn button pressed for about 5 seconds.
  5. The fan starts on low with the light off once it has learned the remote. If not, cycle the power and repeat.
  6. Some manuals use High plus Low instead: hold both for 5 seconds within 30 seconds of power returning.

Tip: pair with the remote in the same room as the fan, and keep the battery door open until you've pressed Learn.

In the box: the 51473 replacement remote, its wall mount and screws, and a set of instructions (battery not included).

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this replacement remote for the Honeywell 51473 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.

Will it dim the light on my 51473?

Yes. Keep the D/CFL switch on D and the light button dims the light. Use dimmable bulbs for smooth steps.

My fan isn't labeled 51473. Will this still work?

Check the model sticker and search our store for that number. If you're unsure, contact us at (816) 586-8457 or info@fanremotes.com.

Does the remote work through walls?

It uses radio, so it doesn't need line of sight, but it's meant for use in the same room as the fan.

It stopped working after a storm. What now?

Pair it again: power cycle the fan, then hold Learn for about 5 seconds within 30 seconds. If that doesn't help, try a fresh A23.

Can I pair it again later?

Yes, any time. Just repeat the power cycle and the Learn button steps.

Is a battery in the box?

No. You'll need one 12V A23 battery, and the + and - ends should match the marks in the compartment.

When will my order ship?

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