If my light only has a 1 Black & 1 White wire + Copper Ground coming out of the light, how would this be connected to work. I tried W2W & B2B no luck

Turn off circuit breakerConnect sensor's black wire to black wire coming from house (coming into the lights electrical box).Connect red sensor wire to light's black wire .Connect all 3 white wires (from house, from sensor and from light) together.

Connect all white wires together. connect black wire from power source to black wire on Westec. Connect Red wire on Westec to black wire on your lamp. You probably need to use old fashioned bulb with this hookup. Good luck.

You must have a 120 volt source. It should have one White neutral, one Black hot, and Ground.The light has a neutral connection, usually White, a hot connection, usually Black and a Ground.The SW103CT has a Black, White and Red.1 Turn power off!2 Connect all grounds together.

Sounds like you've made proper connections. Make sure you have 110 VAC, a good light bulb, some activity for the motion sensor and darkness. If all these items are present and your fixture still does not work, then your fixture must be defective. Good Luck.

You need to install a electronic flasher. There isn't enough voltage to make a standard flasher work

These are 12v lights so you should only have 2 wires you can connect to. It does not matter which color you connect to which wire, as long as it is only 12v.

no no friend, they give you a transformer with this light so just bring your BX or romex to a 1900 box with a bx connector then just connect any two of the blue or brown wires from the supplied transformer to any of the black or white wires

Sorry, I just got back to read my emails. This item is ok if you want to wire your garden area with special wiring for this type of light. I didn't read all the information about it and wanted a plug in to the outlet type. So I am going to eat this one for now. Maybe one day I might wire my whole backyard to have this type of lighting system. Sorry I could not help you more. Good luck.

I dont see why you cant.just hook up the positive and negative wire and you should be good to go.the led lights draw hardly any power.they are great lights and good people to deal with. Good luck

Donna,FYI - I bought and installed this exact system with no difficulty. Your comment/question is too vague to answer. To recap the usual installation: the red dimmer wire must connect to the "+" side of the LED strip, and the black wire must connect to the "-" side. This is mandatory or else the LED's won't turn on. The dimmer is then plugged into the transformer, and naturally the transformer must be plugged into an active 120 volt outlet. Also, double check that you have good connections at the LED strip. If this doesn't help you, please explain in more detail how you have your system set up. I'd be happy to help you.Doobster Donna,FYI - I bought and installed this exact system with no difficulty.

wire one power supply to both ends 12v DC or 24vac works great / output switch can be NO or NC just move jumper / unit is aligned when LED is lit on receiver. The one with 2 wires is lamp and 4 wires is receiver / if near a window or slider signal may bounce off glass, A tube or tape may help to limit beam. Have fun : )

Hi Leslie - yeah, these things are kindofa brat to install. It took my electrician several tries before he got it, and the instructions aren't clear. If I remember correctly, your wiring to/from the light needs to have a three wire configuration, where one wire is called the "traveler" wire... it essentially informs the other switch of the state of itself so they are always in sync.If you have an older home, you may be SOL - the wiring may not support this switch type.Rob

Hi, I linked them by running hardwire to each fixture (and box) the only other way to link them would be with the provided wires but they are not very long. Let me know of you need more information

It's pure copper wiring, so, in theory, you can use it for anything that you're able to make a connection to. How you'd do that when it comes to those lights isn't something we do, so you'd have to figure that out for yourself.

First, the unit won't operate unless you have an active ground connection. The instructions are poor in that they don't show the complete circuit to the light. Basically, run your power cable through the switch box to the light fixture; the black wires of the switch will be spliced into the black "hot" wire of the cable; the green wire of the switch will be connected to (but not interrupt) the ground wires of the cable. The white "neutral" wire will run only to the light - bad design in my opinion, because the switch uses ground instead of neutral to complete its control circuit, but apparently it meets electrical code or could not be marketed.

Out of the box is setup to be hard wired. I replaced a fixture that was controlled by a 3way wall switch. Worked fine. I am not much of an electrician but I would guess it would take some doing to make this work on a pull chain. Might want to look for a fixture with that feature already on it.

Judith, sorry for the delay . I just came back from vacation. I checked and do not have the wiring instruction anymore. It is extremely difficult for me to take the lamp down and look inside the wiring. May be you should consult with someone who has electrical wiring experience. I wish that I can help you on this. Sorry

The LED's from LEDGlow have a postitve and a negative wire coming out of the control box, you plug that into the postive / ground on this adapter. The adapter comes with something where you can connect the wires, not sure what it is called though. I used wire taps to secure them.

What if you have one more light, WHAT?How do you hook them up? I put all the red wires together and all the black wires together and hook them to power. Red to positive and black to ground. OR I hook up a positive thru the switch I'm using, and a ground from the battery then I "tap" into each with the LED strip wires. You HAVE TO WIRE THEM CORRECTLY RED TO POSITIVE, BLACK TO NEGATIVE OR THE LED WON'T WORK AT ALL. Its not like a regular light bulb that can be wired in reverse. Hope all this mess helps you.
