The black wire should go to one side of the switch, and either the purple or brown wire would go to the other side. The fan is run by either purple or brown, and the light by the other color. If you have no light, then the wire that would go to the light should look unused. Try one, then the other if you guess wrong.
Turn off the power before connecting the wires.
Good luck.
