Ok, I removed my old fan, and *thought* I drew an entire diagram of the
old wiring setup. What I didnt relize until I tried wiring the new fan
was I forgot to draw where the white wires were connected to on the old
fan!

Here is my setup:

From the fan box in ceiling I have (2) sets of wires.
Black/White/Ground and Black/White/Ground. On the old fan, I know that
one of the black wires were connected to the Blue and Black wire on the
fan. I know that the other black wire was connected to the white wire
on the fan. What I dont know is where the other white wires connect to


Any ideas where I should connect the other (2) white wires? I tried
different combinations, nothing worked

Hi,
At least you need a multi-meter to sort it out. do you have one?
My guess is one set of wire is from the switch and the other is
line side(power source).

Yep, I have a multimeter. What would be the best way to test the wires
with it?

White wires are the return or common wires. They always ALL connect
together. Hot wires on Fans are Black or Blue and sometimes RED.
Green wires go to chassis ground.

The white wire on the fan MUST connect to the white wire in the
ceiling.
