I have problem to set up the wire. Where Neutral wire(white) should go?

The white is the nuetral wire. If you do not have a nuetral wire in the switch box, it will not work. Some electricians only run a switch leg into the box, instead of running hot and neutral. In this case, you are out of luck.

The white wire goes to the white wire in the breaker box. Hope that helps. Tyna

Me too. Still haven't got it set up correctly. Power to the digital array is working but the switch and timer do not. Sorry

Gerry, Where does the wire originate? (i.e. kitchen switch to kitchen light, basement breaker to livingroom recep etc...) Make sure the power is off. remove the receptacle, light switch or light fixture from the wall or ceiling where you are going to start your trace. Connect the black toner lead to the ground wire which is typically green or bare. Connect the Red toner lead to the neutral wire which is typically white. (polarity isn't essential since the signal is a sine wave and can be traced either way) Turn on the toner and test the signal at the source with your wand. Its best to turn up the volume on the wand to high so you can hear it through the walls. The signal should be loud and clear. While pressing the button on the wand, move it up and down on the wall (switch or recep) or around the ceiling (fixture) to locate the direction where the wire is running. If you have a basement, most likely the wire will run in that direction. If its a recepticle, you will have a supply line coming from the basement and another line running to (possibly) multiple switches and light fixtures. you will need to trace all lines that have a toner signal. Every electrician wires houses a little differently. Some homes, a room has a line running to a receptacle, from there a light switch, then a light fixture. All of these wires will share the same tone. Once you have traced the lines, you will get to a point where the signal drops and it is barely audible. This is where the break is. If it is in a wall, you may have more of a rodent or structural issue than just a wire break. Without being there, seeing the house and understanding the issue more I really cant give much more info. If this helps, let me know. If not and you have another question, feel free to ask. God Bless and happy tracing!

You have electrical issues with your house. Call an electrician. Most likely your neutral wire is not connected properly and current is flowing through the ground instead creating a dangerous situation. Call an electrician! I'm an electrical engineer.

My guess is the reds are your 120v wires. On mine the blue go to 170v B+ and the white go to 6.3v tube heater supply. Try the red on 120 and test with a meter to be sure your blues and whites are not crossed.

Hey there, I used this wiring diagram to help me out to set everything up. Im running a 2.1 system on my PC.https://i.imgur.com/Z8FMJ.pngHope it helps.

hook the yellow w/green stripe to ground wire(green), the blue wire is neutral (white wire),and the brown wire is hooked to the 120v hot leg(black wire). hope this helps.

You should have a black and a red. That go's positive and negative. The other wire (yellow or red) should go to your switch.

I have copy of instructions. I can send send them? Trick is the Yellow wire is the control wire. If you want it on all the time (which is the way I hooked it up). Black wire to negative, red and yellow to positive.

I'm not an electrician. To my knowledge, three wires should supplied to a switch. You should have a green wire (ground) coming into the plastic box. That should be hooked to the ground screw on the switch. If a green wire was not pulled with the hot (black) and the neutral (white, sometimes gray), then you need to contact a liscensed electrical contractor. Finally, if you have any question about what's the hot, neutral and ground wire, then instead of getting knocked on the ground, or worse, consult an electrician

The light is polarity sensitive, red is positive, black is negative, check the polarity of your existing wiring, you may find black is positive and white is negative. Why you have 2 white wire? I'm not sure, one wire may possibly be suppling gound to another fixture... goood luck, Scott

?????????? black wire to black wire green to green ,,,, white wire to whitewire, ground wire should rear that the way mine was

The only thing that i can think of is that the neutral and hot wires are backwards. Neutral should be white, hot should be black. A volt meter would be needed to be sure.

This switch needs 120v supply into the switch. Usually Black. The white coming to the box with the 120v supply will go to the neutral of the switch. The red on the switch will go to the light to turn it on. This is not for a 3-way switch instillation. Wire the ground on the switch to ground in the box.

Try reversing the wire. That may help. The issue is that the third lead isn't precisely where it should be so some devices have a hard time connecting to it.

no, i didn't have this problem. sounds like wires inside may be crossed. get a hold of place purchased, they should swap it put for you.

I would like to just know how to hook it up!! I cannot figure out what goes where and there are no directions!! I know the outfit was cheap, but geez!!! If you like yours so much, then purchase one to go with it!! Could you help me get mine set up?? I just cannot figure out what wire goes where. and not all of them fit

It sounds like you have the wrong wire contacted to the power source. One wire goes the a permanent power soure and the other goes to the ingnition switch. Couldn't tell you which color goes where because I returned my unit because it froze on me and stopped working.
