I have red, white, & black wires from the ceiling, a ground wire on the mounting bracket, and blue, black, and white wires from the ceiling fan motor. The instructions provided do not explain wiring instructions for this scenario.

connect your ground wire first then neutral then hot (green, white, then black) and reverse order if removing old fan. always want the ground wire terminated if its possible for the circuit to be energized
