Yeeeeeeeah I just found the remote for the fan and turned the lights on. Everything seems to work now! Though, the lights still work without the red switch on, but it works so I don’t think I should mess with it any more than I have lol

The lights don’t work currently. The bottom one works, which turns the fan on and off. The top one does nothing, though I can verify that current is passing through with the voltage tester when switched on. Both the black wire and red wire on the right side seem to be going to the fan through the top left corner in the box. I can also verify that the black wire on the bottom right of the switch leads to the bundle of hot wires from the wall. Not sure what it was about the last switch that made the lights work…

I also have a single switch, if that will work as well. The fan is remote controlled.

Thanks! So the one one the right is pigtailed to the hot in the wall, and the black and red are going up (I believe to the fan). Since that tab is there, they should be sharing the hot, right?

Thanks for the reply! I think I may have got it. However, the fan is working, but the lights are not: https://imgur.com/a/WhKnUip

So in looking at the double switch, it would be one hot on the left, the single red wire from the fan on the top and the single black wire from the fan on the bottom? No ground connected?
