Also, one additional word of caution, before you work on the cieling fan, TURN OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER, I was helping a neighbor, and much to my surprise, the RED wire had been connected to the HOT (Black) wire in the switch box, we found this out when it moved and touched the frame of the ceiling fan, after which the breaker tripped.....I was working on the assumption the RED wire was not connected, I now double check every wire....
