thanks! we'll move in our newly constructed house next week; I was concerning about how to install lights...now I get it!

You guided my fixture replacement, thank you.

Thanks! This video is so much easier to understand than the home depot video!

This video is great. To the point and easy to understand.

Thanks, this was exactly what I needed.

Pre 2004 domestic wire colours: Red is live Black is neutral Yellow and green is earth Post 2004: Brown is live Blue is neutral Yellow and green is earth

Very clear and easy to understand video

You guys rock awesomesauce I did not realize it was that simple if it is the same weight or less weight

That's all it takes? I CAN DO THIS!

Best video! Brevity is genuis.

hey this is wonderful! thanks

Really informative.. thanks :)

Oh wow your video looks so simple and easy I keep watched again and again can't believe very simple and one minute video I watched many orders video is very confusing and difficult .... cuz I have 16 lights fixture to change wish me luck

Thank you, sir

thank you!

excellent!

my home has those same ugly fixtures...thanks for this video!

Looks really easy, that is if the electrician before wired everything properly.

That was easy

This is great... but both wires coming out of my fixture both look exactly the same.

Some of these light fixtures have foil in them can I replace it with foil Reynolds wrap?

THANKS

Apparently my home builder attached the fixture to drywall only. No stud mounts, or braces. I learned yesterday to my surprise to see the housing being held by wires, because the drywall gave in. There are atttic studs 24" away from east to west, but noththing fro m north to south. Can i just add a 4x2, and fix it to the 2, 2x4s. The re-affix the light fixture?

Yes. Or there are metal bars that can be attached between studs to anchor the box.

Doesent help... The light i have in my house has a little plus sign hole that wires go through, I accidentally knocked it out and I cant find any video on how to squeeze the metal thing to fit through the hole.

Thanks I was looking for this. One I am replacing is rusty has been up outside by the ocean since 1990s and now it's 2024 and omg I can't tell a bolt from a base. Everything is just rust.

I installed a light fixture exactly this way and it will not turn off. I have 2 sets of wires coming from the ceiling. If i connect all black, white and ground wires it will not come on. If I disconnect 1 black wire it comes on but stays on. Switch on wall does nothing. Any ideas?

ok great video, good job :) But what do u do if there is a ground wire on your new fixture but no ground wire to connect to the other end?

You don't connect it because there is no ground wire?

Look for a green screw in the metal electrical box and fasten the new ground wire from the new fixture under the green screw.

​@@MichaelStVitus ..what if there's no green screw in the box either?

Hello, I have a ceiling light that has 2 whites wires, 2 black wires, 2 green wires and one yellow wire! what do I connect the yellow wire to?

i will be doing that solo and i am nervous about finding out how my wiring is not as easy as here.

👍👍👍

what about the green ground wire????

I don't have 4 hand to do this

Wire nuts are dodgy?

Easy

No ground wire there in junction box make sure to have a ground wire

Anyone know how to open up the fixture at 0:12?

ever figure it out? :P

I’m too clumsy to perform this shit

you dont need a helping hands for light weight fixtures like the old one. and also that old one looks new.

the neutral and hot wires aren't spliced correctly

Did you see that fixture wobble when he put that bulb in?!! Guess he needed a third set of hand to tighten the screws.

Didn't include ground wire.

my wires are yellow

LFG!!!

Yes looks doable but I'd still pay the electrician to come and sort it out.

Then tell me Courtney, WHO THE FUCK IS ANTON!?!

lol. No doubt tell me about it. I've got the old globe type RIMLESS light cover. I'll need to get a degree in rocket science to re install it...

It seemed intimidating until I saw this lol duh

my next door neighbour (who i dont get on with) told me to test the wiring with a screwdriver, he said it will warm up and that is how you can tell the power is not switched off. i think he could be wrong i plan to try this within the next 15 minutes as it is getting dark

It's a special screw driver that you use to test for power. PLEASE DON'T use any random screwdriver

Lol, it is really a job, i think.

lmao yee thought so to

I’m definitely a dummy

i love how they skipped the ground wire info...i guess its instructions by dummies

wire nuts... fucking hell, welcome to the '50s

Thanks great video ,check out my video on utube , 12 year old samya rappin, thanks

I agree with the others... I don't have four hands nor a friend or someone to hold the new light fixtures. I'm definitely not gonna bother my man for this nonsense. >_> Got a way to do this for a single person?

Let him do it, then he can ask you for help.

You did NOT show how or where to attach the grounding wire - dummy!
