As you can see the two switches are different in that the original one is a double stack and the new one is not. THey are similar in that they are both 3 speed switches.
On the old switch, the white wire, which is a motor wire, is in the terminal labeled "neutral splicer" which seems to also be connected with one of the power source wire which you can barely see embossed on the case in the last picture.
I believe the "L" terminal belonged to the other power wire.
The other two motor wires, the blue and orange, resided on the lower layer in the second and third speed ports (one was empty).
So, assuming I know that a power source wire goes to "L" and another is linked to the white motor neutral could I just jam the blue and orange into two of the three speed ports and splice one of the power lines with the motor neutral ?
OK REMOVED THE PICS SINCE I FIXED THE PROBLEM.
