Clearly explained, efficient editing, no personality distractions, emphasized safety (power off), and saved me money. Like a previous reviewer, I went to Home Depot and bought the replacement switch for $3.23. Screwdriver, a wire cutter, a couple of wire caps. Not a professional electrician, it took maybe 30 minutes. Thanks Big Time!

I am a single lady, so I have to do things myself. I've been doing the wrong kind of searches for a couple days, so I have been afraid to tackle my ceiling fan problem. But now, with a new search, I found yours and my fix is clear to me. Shew! My problem is the kitchen fan/light. The fan stopped working and it's surely been NEEDED for the last two months. I knew how, so I took it apart and blew it out with compressed air, but that didn't help. So I put it back together and did this final search that brought me here and you have cleared up my thick-headed thinking. SOOO, now at least I know how to take it apart and put it back together. I just need to get the switch. I won't get to it for a week, tho, at least. But at least I am not timid anymore.

I had the exact same problem in that my cheap ceiling fan / lamp combo had the chain to the light seize, becoming unusable. After watching this video I felt confident in pulling the thing apart and finding the snail shaped clicker switch. It was dirty and I hit it with some WD40 and lo and behold, it was working again. Thanks for making the video - it helped a ton in visualizing the path I needed to take in finding the part.

Looks great, and with a brighter bulb installed that’s all the light you need. kzitem.infoUgkxWF88GpljEn-0o34vtLFazEQ5h5Q33SjU As far as ease of installation- this was my first ceiling fan and it took about 3 hours because I had no idea what I was doing and also it’s helpful to have a second set of hands and a magnetic drill bit. Works great.

Your video is very good and straight to the point. However, the hole where the chain switch goes will vary depending on who the manufacturer is. In my case the hole for the chain-switch was "tapped," "threaded' so I could not just pull the chain-switch out as you did. I had to identify the wires (your idea), disconnect the wires and then unscrew the chain-switch. To put the replacement chain-switch in I had to screw it back in, reconnect the wires and finish the job. This is coming from a person who do not mess around with electricity other than changing batteries in a flash-light. Thank you for you video.
