I inherited a ceiling fan when I bought my little brick bungalow in the midwest US 20+ years ago.
Closest to the ceiling is the fan. Under that is a unit with 4 small lamps that I've not been using. Under that is unit for a single globe lamp.
Needing light control, I wired it to a dimmer switch all those years ago. Knowing the fan should be 100% on or off, I'd set the dimmer to max before switching the fan on. Same as "on" with a bipolar (on/off) switch?
When I run the fan with dimmer on max and switch the globe lamp off at the unit, I get a funny buzz. Never wired a ceil. fan myself, not sure what causes the buzz. It doesn't appear to be from vibrations.
Any ideas?
Thx, Peetie
