I did something a little less than smart. Thought I could remember where each of the wires went, but when it came time, I couldn't. Shut off the breaker for the muidroom first. Im not that dumb! Ha


I did a quick search, found this place, and hope that someone can give me a little guidance.

instead of writing out a long decription, I made a thing in paint to show what I have. I just need to know which wires get connected to which other wires.

A is one of the wires in the ceiling. (yellow casing actually has an A written on it.)
B is the other wire in the ceiling. Black, white, and copper in both (drew green)
C is the little box with the wafer light has three wires in it, black white and green

If someone could describe which A wires go to which box wires, and which B wires go to which B wires, I think I got it. I know the bares go to the green, and the wires in the ceiling have those little flip wagyu connectors.

Next time, I am going to draw a dang diagram of what goes where before I unhook anything.

Can someone help? Thanx
