I replaced our old fan/light combo in our bathroom with a new Broan fan light combo. I am obviously trying to re-use the existing wiring (house is only 20 years old therefore the wiring should be fine). The power is coming in at the switch with regular 3 wire Romex (White, Black, Ground). The two lines up to the Fan/light are also the same wire (White, Black, Ground).
My dillema is every wiring diagram shows 4 wire romex (White, Black, Red, Ground). The switch I have is a regular rocker switch with a common hot terminal, and two other line terminals for a total of three (plus a ground screw).
What si the best way to wire this so we control both functions separately via the double switch.
Thanks for any and all help.
