The only thing I can figure is there is a module or two in the wiring for the basic fan that is dividing voltage between fan speeds and the light, and a lightening strike took out the light side of the module. Fan works perfectly-the two light leads are clearly marked-I can't believe there is any wiring adaption needed to have voltage go to the light kit....has anyone else encountered difficulty installing a light kit on an existing ceiling fan?? Am I missing something??
