switch, locate the hood junction box and remove its cover.
Step 2: Disconnect the pink wire in the junction box
coming from the motor from the red wire coming from
3-position rocker switch on the range hood. Cap the red
wire coming from 3-position rocker using appropriate
size wire nut.
Step 3: Connect the pink wire in the junction box
coming from the motor to a 3-position wall switch. This
will allow control of high fan speed.
Step 4: Disconnect the grey wire in the junction box
coming from the motor from the black wire coming
from 3-position rocker switch on the range hood. Cap

coming from the motor to a 3-position wall switch. This
will allow control of low fan speed.
Step 6: Connect a black wire from hot on 3 position wall
switch for fan to the black hot wire in the junction box.
Step 7: Disconnect the orange wire in the junction box
from the white wire coming from the motor and cap the
orange wire using appropriate size wire nut.
Step 8: Connect an 18 gage white wire to the white wire
coming from the motor using appropriate size wire nut
at one end. At the other end connect the 18 gage white
wire to the neutral white wire in the junction box using
appropriate size wire nut.
Step 9: To establish connection of hood lights to wall
switch, connect a black wire from hot on 2 position wall
switch for light to the black hot wire in the junction box.
Step 10: Disconnect the violet wire in the junction box
coming from the lamps from the violet wire coming
from 2 position rocker switch on the range hood. Cap

Step 1: To establish connection of hood fan to wall
switch, locate the hood junction box and remove its cover.
Step 2: Remove the access panel in the hood to access
the wiring attached to the range hood rockers.
Step 3: Connect the black wire in the junction box
coming from the fan range hood rocker to 2 position wall
switch.
Step 4: Run power to the 2 position wall switch to
control the fan using wall switch.
Step 5: To establish connection of hood lights to wall
switch, cut the black wire coming from the light range
hood rocker to the middle connector on fan range hood
rocker and cap the end attached to the fan range hood
rocker using appropriate size wire nut.
Step 6: Connect a black 24” min. length 18 gage wire to
the black wire that was cut coming from the light range
hood rocker using appropriate size wire nut. Run the
black wire through the conduit into the junction box to
make sure the wire is not exposed to any sharp edges.
Step 7: Connect the black wire added into the junction
box to 2 position wall switch.
Step 8: Run power to the 2 position wall switch to
control the lights using wall switch.
