So far, I cannot locate a wiring diagram for an installation. However, this is a single phase "shaded pole" motor.
For a single speed, shaded pole motor, there are only two power wires. For a dual speed motor, a third wire provides a second speed. One wire will be one side of the motor coil(s)...connected to the white power wire. The other wires are the opposite side of one or two motor coils, connected to the black power wire or through a thermostat. A thermostat is simply a temperature operated switch. An additional wire may (should) be a green "grounding" wire.
They don't show one on their site. Use a meter to see which two connections make when you pull the switch then wire one field connection to one terminal and a mains in wire to the other. The other connection should be the same. (Some times it goes side to side , some times it goes across. )
Short blue cable goes between the negative and positive terminals on one side of the battery.
Thick white from cable that goes to the switch and thick wire that comes from negative terminal of motor go together with the small black wire from the hood - connect all 3 wires to the negative terminal on other side.
Thick green wire from cable that goes to the switch goes with the thin red wire from the hood - connect both wires to the remaining (unused) positive terminal.
The gold terminal is usually the "hot" terminal (black wire), the silver terminal is "neutral" (white wire). Remember to turn off the power before you work on it.
You need two switches. It sounds like the Electrician set up the junction box for two circuits(Lights and Fans). i say this because your supply has 4 wires, Red , Black, White and Bare. We may be able to oversome this with one Lutron Switch. Allow me to investigate, and I will be back.
