I used to install fans for 6 cieling fan stores and probably have more fan experience than 10 guys put together. I know exactly the frustration you have. Your best choice is a replacement from Hunter. You may find the same switch as a generic, often times you can find the same brand and model at home depot even under diferent brand packages so look at the switch itself. (Jin You and Santa are popular brands) It needs to be the same switch or it's a crap shoot to find the right combination. The best method is to replace 1 wire at a time to avoid confusion. Was this a single or double layer switch, the doubles usually have a jumper wire between 2 of the connections. I doubt this helped you, but maybe it did. Good Luck
