We are replacing an old ceiling fan that had no lights. There are two wall switches so we'd like to be able to control the fan and lights separately.
At the ceiling box I have two cables, both contain a black wire, a white wire and a ground. The two white wires are bundled together and were connected to the white wire on the old fan. The two grounds are bundled together and were connected to the green ground on the old fan.
So, how do I connect the wires on the new fan to utilize both wall switches? The fan has a black wire, a white wire, a ground wire and a black and white wire.
At the wall, each switch has a black, white, and ground wire going into it.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks!
