Why are things so much more complicated than they should be? I'm trying to install a ceiling fan in my kitchen. I want the fan to run by pull chain and the light to run by wall switch. When I put Abby's fan in, I only had 2 wires, black and white. I didn't see any option for bypassing the wall switch easily so both are controlled by the wall switch. I opened up the kitchen outlet only to find 6 wires, 3 white and 3 black. I got the fan running independant of the wall switch but the light wouldn't work. I've tried several combinations and sparks have flown once. Sometimes the 2nd light in the kitchen works and sometimes it doesn't. I'm retarded. I guess I'll have to call in my dad. One of these days he won't be around and then we will all be screwed. I've got so much to learn.
