    Three way fan/light diagram

    I need a schematic (drawing) of the following:

    Two ceiling fan/lights in the same room both controlled by the same switch/s I'll need to have two switches one at either entrance to the room. I want the switch to control the lights and use the pull chain to turn the fan/s on and off. Both fans will be between the two switches.

    Thanks in advance

    fan/light combo

    before I get into a diagram, do you want the fan motors hot all the time with just the lights switched -or- do you wish the fans and lights to be switched together?

      Fans motors always hot so they can be turned on or off by the pull chain and the lights on the three way switch...please

        fan-light diagram

        ok, here's the diagram. go to your electrical jobber and get a length of 14 or 12/4 romex cable. 14 if you're fusing for 15 amp or 12 if you're going with 20 amp circuit.
        you'll have one extra color in the cable, blue I think.
        I'm using the red off the remote#2 common screw as the switch leg for the lights and the darker blue for the hot to the fan motors.Click image for larger version
