    Wires came loose while changing switch need to get wires matched.keeps blowing fuse
    My question is to match the right color wires to operate ceiling fan and light fixture. The wires came loose before I could match them. The swith has three colors black, red and blue. The colors that are to be matched with are green, red and orange. How do I match these.
    Additionally it has a bottom set of lights and the wiring tied together has a white set that needs to be connected to above set. And it has a black wiring tied together that needs to be connected somewhere. Can you help me?

    Where are you located? The color codes you have sound like UK.

    What make and model number fan do you have?

    I am located in the US and don't know the name of the ceiling fan, but I know it is very old.
