I am trying to put a switch on every one of my halogen lights. The problem is on the first one I tried I fired up the genny and it popped the breaker.

The switch has 2 wires comming from it. The light has 3 wires; black, white, and green. I tried to hook up the black and white to the 2 wires comming from the switch. I fired up the genny, the light was working, when I flipped the switch to off it popped the breaker on the genny.....

Any ideas????[:@][:@]

Never mind, I figured it out......Only mess with the black wire....

So... the light was ON. Then you hit the switch, and it turned OFF.

Sounds to me like it worked just fine....once. hee hee

Actually, you might not want to mess with ANY of them.

That totally made me laugh out loud. I also laughed when I read Ken's first post.

Ken and wiring..... I hope he has good life insurance.

OMG Chris.....It is not like I am trying to work a torqe wrench....

Sorry Chris, but that's funny too. Who knew Ken had that good of a memory?

I don't need no stinking torque wrench...
