At the switch box connect the black (hot) wire and red (switch leg) wire to the wall switch as shown.

At the appliance connect the black (hot), white (neutral) and green (ground) wires to the junction box as shown.

Add a 1/4 inch insulated female connector to the red (switch leg) wire, route it through the knockout in the face of the junction box, and connect to the top fan switch connector (1/4 inch male) as shown.
