How do you rewire a wall switch to control both ceiling fan and light. The switch currently furns the fan on and off but the light has to be controlled with a pull chain?

Open up the ceiling box and disconnect the blue wire coming from the light and connect it to the black wire coming from the fan. Be sure and put a wire nut on the wire where the light was connected before you removed it. The wall switch is controlling power to the wire where the fan is connected so when you connect the blue fan wire to that connection you will be sending power to both the fan and light from the wall switch.

What does it mean if there is a black sticky substance coming from the light switch?

One possibility is that the connections are loose. Heat is generated. The switch was wrapped in black electrical tape and it is melting. Switch off and get it checked by a qualified electrician.


How do you wire a series of recessed lights to a single switch when the power goes to the lights first?

If you already know how to put one fixture on a 3-way, just connect white-to-white and black-to-black from one light to the next. If you're changing from a single switch to the 3-way, the exact wiring will depend on whether the power comes from the breaker box to the switch or the existing fixture. I'll assume you're starting from scratch or have the power going to the fixture. You need #15 two-wire with ground and #15 three-wire with ground romex. Run two-wire from the breaker box to the first light fixture. Pull a another two-wire from this box to switch A and a three-wire between the switches. String two-wire from the first light to the second, second to third, etc. In the first box, connect white from source to the white fixture wire and the white going to the second box; black from source to the black to switch A; and the black fixture wire to both the white to switch A and the black to the next fixture. At each of the other 5 fixtures, connect all white to white and black to black (three pair in each box except the last one). At switch A, connect the white from the fixture to the common (center) connector and the black directly to the black going to switch B. The red and white wires going to switch B are connected to the two outside connectors of switch A. At switch B, the black goes to the common connector and the red and white to the outside connectors. At each box, connect all the bare wires (second ground) to each other and to the fixture or box. Now turn the power back on. If all the connectors are tight, power should follow the black wires from source past the fixture and switch A to switch B. From there it will go through one or the other of the travellers and, if switch A is in the same position as B, up the white switch leg to the fixtures, turn on all the lights and go back to ground.

Is a black awning cooler in the summertime than a white awning?

No, a black awning would actually absorb more of the light spectrum thus being hotter. A white awning would reflect more of the spectrum making it cooler. However the heat of the black awning would heat the air closest to it making it rise. The rising hot air would suck cooler air towards the awning creating a draft or air current which could make the air under the awning seem cooler. This same effect was noted in an article on burquas where the black burqa actually cooed the wearer.

The Rear defroster switch on your 1995 Ford Escort does not stayed engaged after pushing the button but will work if you hold it is there a relay for this function or do you just replace the switch?

replace the switch... there is a spring steel L shaped clip that goes around a V shaped slide and that plastic slide breaks on them... i have the same problem and looking for a used switch cause the ford dealers want $112.00(can) for a new one. I suggest buying any toggle/push-button switch and rewire it (as the ford switch will break again). A new switch from Radio Shack (or equivalent) is easy to install and will only cost you just $5. Here's the wiring info for your convenience: (The stock Ford switch is a 5 terminal switch) Red & black stripe - Hot for illuminating LED Black - Ground for illuminating LED Red - goes to dimming rheostat Black & White stripe - Hot "for" Rear Defroster Black & Blue stripe - Wire "to" Rear Defroster
