hi, i didnt really plan ahead. i now have a hole cut in the wall in my bathroom for an exhaust fan and don't know how to get electric to it. there is no wiring in that wall. there is a light switch in the opposite interior wall and a ceiling light. too small of a crawl space for me to fit into above. there is an accessible crawl space below but i cant drill right up through the wall because it sits right on the joist header. i know it was stupid but this is where i'm at now. any help much appreciated. thanks!

I would like to replace the single wall switch that controls the light on a ceiling fan. The fan is powered independently of the light (no wall switch). When I pulled to switch I found the wiring to be thus: Two black wires to the side screws, one red (or pink wire) to the lower side screw, one black wire to the upper back wire hole in the switch and another red (or pink) wire with a splash of white paint on it to the lower back wire port. Question is was the fan powered directly by the two wires that were back wired on the switch? If so, does this mean that I can get a switch that allows me to control both the light and fan from the wall? Thank You,
