Hi Experts,
It is my first post here, sorry if this has been discussed before.
Last year I tried to replace my bathroom single pole fan switch with a timed or humidity control fan switch. Inside the existing switch box I can see two inputs, one 3-wire (black, white and copper) and one 4-wire (black, white, red and copper). The red wire goes to the switch and the white wires goes together and then to the switch as well. The two black wires are capped off and they are not connected to the switch.
On the switch, the red wire goes in has a tag marked "high" and the white wire goes in has a tag marked "com".
The new switch that I bough has 4 wires, black, white, red and copper. I couldn't figured out how to wire the new switch so I returned it to the store. Recently I saw this forum and would like to see if I can get your advice
so I can try again.
Appreciate anyone can tell me how do I wire the new switch?
