Last year I installed 2 fandeliers one in the front room and one in the bed room, this is in a high rise condo in Chicago, the person called me today
and said, there fandeliers lights turn on by them self, I am sure of my work, I do not believe there is a wiring problem,
does any one have any ideas???


Thank you for all and any input,

Perhaps the receiver inside the fixture for remote control is being interfered with by something, maybe even from another condo unit.

Yiu indicated 2 units installed, Purhaps HO is switching one that triggered the other, had that happen. Or as others indicated a neighbor, and really any RF on same frequency hitting the right level could trigger.
Had a wireless door bell that everytime the trooper car went by on the adjacent road (in visual sight) it would trigger it, evidently it was their wireless also there was a truck that had a CB would trigger it. Changed the frequency and it was fixed.

Last year. Warranty expired. Lol. Have they had anything installed during the year that could interfere? Is there a certain time of day they turn on?
