How do you wire a 4 wire dryer plug into a 3 wire?
You cannot wire a 4 wire dryer plug into a 3 wire outlet for mobile home use - (US NEC) - you must carry all four conductors all the way back to the distribution panel. In a hard wired house configuration, if the dryer is designed to support it, you can replace the pigtail with a three wire pigtail, and connect neutral to ground inside the dryer connection panel. Check your local electrical codes and laws for specific requirements.
Which colors are hot on a 4 prong dryer cord?
A four blade dryer plug cord should have a red, black, white, and green wire in the cord set. The red and black wires are the ones that deliver the 240 volts to the dryer. Black and white deliver control 120 volts to the dryer and also drive the motor to turn the dryer drum. On some dryers they use the red and white for the motor and black and white for the control. As for the green it is always the ground wire.

I am changing a 3-prong to a 4-prong on a Speed Queen dryer. There is no indication as to color-coding for the wiring. Also there are 2 green screws instead of one. How do I decide which wires to hook?
The forth wire is to ground the body of the dryer. The cord should have red, black, white, and green wires. Red and black are hot, the white is neutral, and green is ground. The red, white, black in that order or reversed, black white, red, should go in a row where they connect to the dryer with the green one probably above it. If the center neutral lug has a bond to the chassis remove it. You have a dedicated wire to replace it now.
