Hi,,

there is no "positive" or "negative" wire, because it is AC.

All wires that were connected before must be connected after.

one possible solution is:
* capacitor black wire -- to--> black, black, red wire of fan.
* capacitor red wire -- to --> yellow, yellow wire of fan.

Be careful. Dangerous voltag and a lot of power from mains.
Carefully solder all components and isolate the solder joints.
Make sure the high potential does not touch any metal.
