Replacing bulb fixtures in garage with fluorescent fixtures.........wiring help needed!


Posted by mbastew on May 10th, 2008 10:35 PM

My garage has 3 light fixtures all operated off of one switch. I recently purchased 3 fluorescent fixtures to replace them.

I installed two of them a week ago and both fluorescent and the remaining bulb worked fine. Today I replaced the final bulb fixture with fluorescent fixture and now none of them work. The wiring of the last bulb fixtured looked different than the 2 previous that I replaced. I believe there were two white wires and two black wires. I attached the black fluorescent to the 2 black on the bulb fixture and the white from the fluorescent to the 2 white from the fixture.

I know I screwed the circuit up. I am hoping that someone can provide me with the correct wiring set up (ie black from fixture.......etc)

Thx!
