Review on πŸ”§ Efficient Replacement: 3pcs Zing Ear ZE-268S6 Ceiling Fan Switch - 3 Speed Control for Ceiling Fan Lights by Eric Pavelko

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfectv Replacement

The fan switch that was in the house when we bought it (over 25 years ago) was broken and as the fan was in good condition the best option was to simply replace the switch. . At first they thought I could just run to Lowes for a switch, but a quick web search showed they wanted the same amount for a switch as I paid for all three. However, please note that these switches are supplied exactly as shown, ie without cables. They have push-in connectors, so you must first strip the ends of the wires from the fan (there's a guide right on the switches), twist the ends of the wires so they're stiff enough, and then insert them into the terminals on the switch box. Apart from connecting the two speed cables in reverse order (low speed - high, high - low speed) everything went smoothly and the fan worked fine again. I also now have two spares in case another switch breaks.
