    STOP!
    2 Reds & a Black indicates the original fan was a mains voltage unit with timed overrun.
    ie one permanent live, one switched line from light plus Neutral.
    If so you can't fit a low voltage fan to them without a transformer. please check on original fan voltage and reply b4 connecting fan.
