I have 3 wires in motor white blue orange then there is my power cord black white green new switch has contacts l 1 2 3 what wire go to what contact
The motor will have wiring diagram and voltage on nameplate.
You can re-post question with information that shows on nameplate for more exact information, or keep reading below:
If motor is rated for 240Volts, then it will not work with 120V.
If motor is rated for both 120V and 240V, then either Low voltage or high voltage will work, and one wire will be common, and 1 wire will for 120 and other wire for 240.
If motor is rated 120Volt two speed, then one wire will be neutral, and 1 wire low speed, and other wire high speed. You can connect your wire to either low of high, and cap other wire.
If motor is 240volt two speed, then one wire will be common, and 1 wire low speed, and other wire high speed.
If motor is rated 3-phase, then all three wires are connected to the voltage shown on nameplate.
If motor is rated 3-phase two speed, you may need electrician to wire the motor correctly.

OK .. the thick black and white are the power for the fan , are there also white wires on the lamp sockets ..??
The thick black wire should connect to the black wire on the switch.
The small black wires connect to the red and blue wire on the switch .. two small black wires each .. that should give you a position for 2 lights , and 4 lights, on the step switch .. but there should be white wires from the lamp sockets connected to the thick white from the fan .
please respond .
Please Vote !!

try to find out first all wire wich type of you shold use ampere meter for testing thise wire .
ampere meter turn into continuty mode and conecect its one lead (wire cable) to your motors black wire and watch the display what is rating there .and write it next wire check and date write like this way check your all 4 wire and now who is high number data its conect to number 1 after that some low conecet number to switch number 2 after that who is lowest conect to number 3 and that black colour wire conect to the L mark then try to start your motor
