Why does my remote controlled ceiling fan keep shutting itself off?

Question

I have had this ceiling fan for 10 years. It's the kind with the pull chains but it also has a remote. I always leave the pull chain set to high and just turn the fan on and off with the remote. Some days it stays on all day and I have no problems. Other days, I will turn it on and every 10 minutes or so it will spontaneously turn off again. It's driving me nuts! What's the deal?

Answer 1

The receiver on the fan could be going bad, also some times stray signals from other electronic devices may be shutting it off.

Answer 2

the self timer could be going on when u turn the fan on
