...if come across other patterns like this, you need to drag the pattern to the art board from the swatches, make a duplicate of the existing white box (control/command B) send to back UNDERNEATH, very bottom of hierarchy, and set that duplicate box to a fill of none and stroke of none...
...then, select the whole pattern again and drag back over the swatch (with the alt/option key held down to overwrite) in the swatches palette, all instances will update where used on the artwork, then re-color as normal...
