Where can you find instructions to correctly install pot lights?

Try this site! I would also like to know how to install pot lights in the kitchen of a two story home..How do you get the wires past the studs in the ceiling to the other lights ? thanks...E First figure out where the joist spaces are. Get a stud finder and mark them out for better reference. Plan out where you want your pot lights to sit and cut out your holes. I use an appropriately sized hole saw. If you need to go through the joists you will need a drill and a drill bit that will make a hole big enough to get your wire through. If your pot lights are separated by multiple joists you will have to make holes in each joist space between them in the drywall to gain access. SAVE YOUR CUTOUTS! It will make patching the drywall a lot easier once you're finished.

1991 ford e150 tail lights are not getting power?

check the fuse, if it is not blown, your tail lights may be missing ground, locate the ground wire on your tail light socket, then get a wire and a metal thumb tack, push the thumb tack thru the ground wire and splice the extra wire and wrap the bare wire around the thumb tack, turn your tail lights on and touch the bare metal of your van and see if it lights up, if it does lights up, just splice it and reconnect to the new ground source, hope this help you out :-)
