We're installing a new ceiling fan and a new fan/light control switch and need some help with the wiring. Currently, there is a light on the ceiling with 2 switches on the wall (one is a switch, the other is a dimmer that dims the ceiling light).

I would appreciate any input or questions you have to help me get this ceiling fan and fan/light control switch installed. I've done 2 others now in our house, but they were off a single switch and didn't have the fan/light control, so this one is a little more complicated for me.

Pictures:
- Ceiling electrical box (black wires were painted white from builder so I made them black in paintbrush to see them better)
- wires coming from the fan.
- wall switch
- old dimmer switch (where new light/fan control will go)
- new fan/light control

Please let me know if it is not clear enough from the attached pictures which wires are going to where.

Thanks!
