I've made some progress!!!. I was able to attach those other 2 wires
to the switch and now I have high, medium, low but no "off". When I
"hold" the chain after "low" I can hear the motor stop, but as soon as
I let it go it starts to run again.

Any advice?

I have a Hunter-Douglas (Home Depot) ceiling fan in my office.

It has one of those chain "puller" switches to adjust the speed and to
turn it on or off. As I was turning on the fan, the chain pulled out
and now I can't turn the fan off. HELP!!!!!!!!!

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks,

When you go to Home Depot and buy the replacement fan switch, you're
going to notice it has several wires.

They are different colors.

I do not know what colors they are because I am color blind. The
result is that my ceiling fan does not go High, then Medium, then Low
like most. It goes High, Low, Medium. If you know what the chances
are of that combination, you are way too good at math.

PS it is good to turn the power off before changing the switch.
Especially if you have kids. When they hear cuss words they repeat
them to Mommy. Don't ask me how I know this.
