I had to do a search for Chinese color coding and finally figured it out. However, I do not recall what the colors are...

They may not be the same but mine is Brown=Hot Blue=Comon yellow with green stripe is ground.

I went to Home Depot... And also I did some research on Google about cable color code

I think this has wires only, and no plug. It is easy to get a plug, if that is the way you want it - just take the device to a light store, and have them add one. Believe me, it will be worth it. The device looks, and works, great.

You should just need to change the two wires, it sounds like wired backwards. On my set, the wire colors were different between the right and left housings, the ground wire is the same color on both housings.

The unit only requires three conductors to supply the unit. Two of the conductors are energized (hot) and the third is a grounding conductor. If you elect to use a cable with black, white and (green or bare), the white wire should re-identified on both ends with black tape to identify the wire as being hot. White insulated conductors normally indicate that the wire is a "neutral"" or in code terms "a grounded conductor". Thus the need to re-identify the white wire as hot.

I simply wired it into the outlet like a normal device. black (hot), white (neutral), and green (ground).

The wire come with a letter like ABCD so you will put the wires like tha latter says, there is a positive an negative those are for the power get the reverse light conector and plug it there, be careful above the colors of the wires, use adhesive tape to cover it

The black wires are the hot wires, the white are neutral. If you are not familiar with 110VAC, call an electrician, it will work if there is room in your wallbox for the wires.

It is not plug-in. You have to connect the wires to your receptacle. There are one white and one black wire each and a copper wire for ground. The ground is screwed to the receptacle. Check youtube is you don't understand. Good luck!

its been awhile since I installed it...I don't recall having to do any of that. Can you send me a pic of the wires or I will check mine later and reply

I really dont remember. I either used the plug in cord that came with it or purchased a longer one and installed that -- 3 wires. Mine is installed with a 2 foot electric 3 prong plug. I purchased the on/off switch which lets me adjust the temperature. Again, not a hard thing to do.

I just received mine and there was no wiring. Only a pig-tail wire with connector to hook the wiring into it. I am looking into buying a wiring kit so that I can install it.

I think yo have to connect the extra wire. Red one according to the pic. But not sure if it has to be live or ground

It comes with a red, black and green wire. The red is power the black is ground and the green is acc

Mine has a yellow wire but there are no standard color and changing it based on what they have in stock (many low end Chinese manufacturers will do this) ... it should be red-black-X .. red is volts, black is ground and the 3rd wire is current .. you can check this by using a DMM on ohms mode and looking for a practical short (less than 5 ohms) from ground to the green wire and that will verify that it is the current

yellow does not plug into anything - dead wire....brown.blue goes to power source

You have to buy the plug separate. Then connect plug to color coded wires on control box.

Sorry you are out of luck. This particular switch requires 3 wires and a ground - you should return it. Some other switches only require 2 wires. Your two wires are both "hot", usually black wires, the line and load they are called. This switch also requires white/neutral and should also be grounded - green.
