Installed a Hunter ceiling fan a couple weeks ago and also purchased the Model #27185 remote. The fan and or lights will come on by themselves during any time of day or night. I've tried changing the DIP settings but does not resolve.
I also have another Hunter fan with remote that does not have any problems.
Any idea whats causing this?
Many times this is caused by stray frequencies in the neighborhood. And, sometimes changing the frequencies on the remote and receiver reduce the occurrence.
But it sounds like this may not be the case, here. If not, the receiver in the fan is the culprit and should be replaced. No danger, just annoying.

Hunter Palermo 52" fan/light with remote installed turns on by itself. Cat/Model 21617-420
Exactly the same problem. I thought it was the remote....NOT!!!
My fan turns on high all by itself approx. 3 to 4 times in the evening hours. It does not happen everyday but periodically. When it does happen it is all in the same night. Apparently this is a real problem with this brand. I am fearful that there is a short or something that could be dangerous. Should I be worried?
i have two of these fans and the same problem with both. a great fan otherwise, but i don't think i'll be buying hunter anymore --especially since it seems to be a widespread problem that they haven't bothered to fix.
