I am replacing a bathroom fan. The switch on the wall has three switches that were in use (one for the fan, one for the light, and one for the night light). I already took out the old fan and now when I go to install the new one, I'm confused as to how the old one was wired.

My new fan has 3 wires, one black, one green and one white. My home was built around 1970. The old fan had two conduits mapping to it. From one there is a red and a white wire. From the other there is a set of 5 white wires and 1 red. How do I wire this new fan?

Show us a picture of the switch wiring. Pull the switches out of the box (don't disconnect anything) and describe and show us a picture.

If I remember correctly, top is light, middle is night light, bottom is fan.

Does the outlet next to the switch work?

Remove the outlet, pull out the wires so we can see connections.

Turn switch around so we can see connections. Look for any marking on back side of switch that indicate the common terminal.
