In regards to the 42" Ceiling Fan for RVs part # 324-000056, there is a blue wire on the switch that gets ran to a blue wire on the motor of the fan as well as a white wire on the switch that gets ran to a white wire on the motor of the fan. Therefore, you will only need to run two wires from the switch to the fan. There are also two other wires on the switch (black and red) that get ran to power and ground as well as one other wire on the motor of the fan which is a yellow wire for ground.

I am not sure which wires you have run currently but they are likely the same as the two wires that are run from the switch to the fan on the above so you could reuse them so long as you replace the switch with the one that comes with the new fan. That said, you may end up having to run wires for this fan to work properly if you don't already have the correct circuits in place.
