[QUOTE="Crazyboat, post: 520821, member: 21552"] My house was built in 1959 or so. The wiring has no color coding and I confess I have no tester. So I made my own, I took a pigtail and plugged in a bulb, flipped the switch and bam, she blew! So I reversed the wires, added the light fixture I bought, and all was good! No ground wire to connect it to, nothing. I call myself Mr. Half-ass when it comes to electrical and plumbing issues. I can do a few tasks but I much prefer paying an expert. [/QUOTE]
