I have a fan light fixture that is controlled by remote and it will turn on and off by itself. The remote can be sitting on the table and the fan just turns on, or light turns on. Weird.

Ha! Thats a good one. One of your neighbors has the same model with the same factory preset RC freq. Look in your battery compartment on your remote and you will see a series of 4 small switches. You can change them. However you need to locate the reciever in the fan housing and make certain to change those switches as well.
Good luck on that one. Hope you have the owners manual to help you with that. If you dont go to the fan mfg.'s web site for more details.
On the plus side is that you can use your RC to mess with your neighbors fan and light as well. :-)

Does the fan have timer? Sometimes people have their lights set to turn on/off at certain times maybe the fan was connected to a timer somehow?
Could be your house is possessed. You should consult a priest and an electrician.

you may have another remote in the house with the same frequency that can be causing this problem. Cordless phones, remotes on stereos, remotes on toys,

IF YOU LIVE IN A CONDOMINIUM, CHECK WITH YOUR NEIGHBOR. They probably have the same problem. Two controls on the same frequency..
