About the Home Decorators Collection YG493A-EB Remote

Lost the remote for the Home Decorators Collection YG493A-EB? This replacement gives you full control of the Kensgrove 54 in. again: nine fan speeds, forward and reverse, light on, off and dim, plus a 2, 4 or 8-hour timer.

The YG493A-EB is the Espresso Bronze finish version of this fan. Read the model sticker on the motor housing to be sure it matches. The remote pairs to the receiver already in your fan, so nothing needs to be rewired. The Kensgrove 54 in. uses a UC789N-07 receiver in the canopy, which this remote is made to pair with.

  • Comes with a wall mount so it never goes missing
  • Pairs in about a minute with the Learn button
  • Change rotation direction with one press

Handset or wall control?

This is a handheld remote, but the included holder lets it act like a wall control too. Leave it on the holder by the door for everyday use, or take it to the couch or bed. Either way, the fan's wall switch should stay on.

Labeling remotes at home

In a house with several remote-controlled fans, a small label on the back of each handset saves daily confusion. Write the room name in marker or use a label maker. Put the label on the case, not over the battery door, so it stays put when you change cells.

Setup & Pairing

Keep the fan in sight so you can see it confirm the pairing.

  1. Load the remote with two AAA batteries and set the cover aside.
  2. Make sure the little slide switch in the battery bay reads 1.
  3. Power-cycle the fan: off at the wall switch or breaker, then on again.
  4. Right away, while the 30-second window is open, press Learn and let go.
  5. The fan answers by flashing its light and starting the blades. If it stays still, try the sequence once more.
  6. Refit the battery cover and give each button a quick test.

Tip: if the wall switch only controls a light, use the breaker instead. Tip: mount the wall holder after you confirm the remote works.

In the box: YG493A-EB replacement remote, wall mount holder with screws. Batteries are not included.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this replacement remote for the Home Decorators Collection YG493A-EB 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.

Does it control the YG493A-EB light?

Yes. It turns the YG493A-EB light on and off and dims it.

Will this remote work with my YG493A-EB?

Yes. It is made for the Home Decorators Collection YG493A-EB, a 9-speed DC fan. Confirm the number on the fan's label before you order.

How big is the remote?

About 6.1 x 2.1 x 1.1 in. and roughly 2.4 oz, an easy size to hold.

Will it fix a fan that hums or wobbles?

No. Hum and wobble come from the motor, blades or mounting. The remote only sends speed, direction, light and timer commands.

Can I reverse the fan from the remote?

Yes. There is a forward and reverse control, so you can switch blade direction for summer or winter.

Can it control a 6-speed DC fan?

No. 6-speed DC fans use a different receiver, so this 9-speed remote will not run them.

When will my order ship?

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

What is your return policy?

You can return items within 90 days. Items must be unused and uninstalled, in their original packaging. No restocking fees. Please read our return policy before sending anything back. Questions? Call (816) 586-8457 or email info@fanremotes.com.
