Author: I noticed the living room getting dimmer everyday, now the ceiling fan lights are just barely glowing orange. I changed the bulbs and it does the same thing. The house/fan are only 3 years old, not really sure what it could be, any ideas?
More info… the light is not on a dimmer, it has a remote with lights on/off, and low/med/high for the fan. There are no dimmer switches anywhere, it just has been getting dimmer and dimmer everyday now, the fan still works fine though.
Since I don’t know what type of set up you have or if the fan is running correctly …..here is a few ideas
One possibility is the connection at the switch
Another is the wiring under the fan canopy @ the ceiling box.
Still another possibility….. and I am not questioning your intelligence ….. just checking. There are many different types of switches …..many with concealed dimmers like the kind that Leviton puts out. These can have almost unnoticeable dimmers on the side of a normal looking switch {little slide bars} the would control the lighting.

perhaps the light switch is a dimmer switch and is not fully on
