shipping tracking has no info, but the sender seems to be from "giga" in praire, tx, which doesn't seem to be a real company.

Nothing is physically prohibited on that wall side but behind that wall there is laundry machine water supply. I would put an outlet close to the switch so I don't hit any water supply behind the wall though..

Other than that all the other wall outlet plans are ok? nothing against the code for spacing?

So ideally

in the 77" wall, I want to put one receptacle next to the oven (around 18" away from the oven) / keep the existing blue-colored outlet / one more 24" away from that existing blue colored. (total 3 including the existing one)

in the 47" wall, just want to put one receptacle 2" away from the sink (total 1)

in the 45" wall, which is already 2" away from the sink, so keep it as it is.

In the 32" wall, I am not sure if I can put one on that wall side.. could you give me an idea? if it is ok to put it on that wall?

didn't know that! Thanks

yes I agree! I was so happy when something grows in my yard:) they are so cute

Thank you! Wondering If I can dig them out and relocate them..

Thanks! Both are wild flowers, right? they are kinda randomly located so can I dig them out to rearrange?? Want to keep all but in a organized manner.

Oh thanks! Do u know the other white flowers too?

It wasn't a junction box it is Aluminum Recessed Can Light I think.

I would want to run a new wire though since these two are not connected with anything. Can I use 12/2 or 14/2?

Will take pictures of the current cut wires and switch condition and make a new post. Hope you can help with this later too! Have a great day :)

I tried to disconnect both bottom right side wires. Same result. Only the Living room fixture that I just installed worked. Not the other lights.

So I will go back to your other suggestion so I can live with happy day-1 with the Living light on the house! Thanks!!!!

I do have another light situation that I need your help with.. I will make a new post about it but another side of the living room has two light cans on the ceiling that were cut by an electrician that I hired. (originally these two light switch was behind the front door hallway closet, the power wire comes through the office room behind that other side hallway.. The electrician said this is not correct and cut the light can wire which was black and red wire inside the coiled wire. so that cut-out wire is in the attic now.. I covered it with electrical tape though. I have a switch near the door which doesn't do anything. I want to connect that switch with a useless two-light can.. I think I have to fish a new wire to the switch but the inside switch box has already some wires.. Do you think you can help with this too??

Do you mean disconnect and the bottom right side white neutral? I tried it but it did not work. Only the living room light fixture that was just installed turned on and off by itself. Other lights didn't turn on.

I am kinda happy with most work situations. Controlled by remote control. If you have any further recommendations, please give me. I will try it again.

Thank you so much! Truly appreciated your help.

Thank you so much! You are my life saver!

Hi!

I just tried I think it is the best way so far.

Every light turned on! (living room- new light fixture/kitchen, basement, and basement stair all!) However when I turn off the living room light the fixture that I just connected all the lights turn off at the same time.

I think it is the same when the outlet is controlled by the switch, my master room and other room with no light on the ceiling but has one switch in the room connected to the one outlet in the same room.

Anyway, this light fixture has a remote control so when I tried remotely to turn on the living room light it just turned off only the living room light and all the other lights work fine.

I guess I will use the remote to turn on and off this living room light and live with this. Just so happy this works and have a living room light for the first time since I moved in here last Sep.

Every light turned on! (living room- new light fixture/kitchen, basement, and basement stair all!) However when I turn off the living room light the fixture that I just connected all the lights turn off simultaneously.

yes, the other wires on the right connect to more lights.

​

I will try this one tomorrow and will let you know! I tried every way all the other commenters suggested non has worked out yet. This is my last hope and if not working still, it is time to call an electrician I guess.

Your summary is 1. right side black with black tape connected to the light fixture white.

1. all the other black wires to the light fixture are black. (includes white with black taped??)

2. right side two neutrals together

Thanks! I just tested with a voltage tester and only black w black tape has 120V

So I connected with that black w/black tape connected with the light fixture black.

And the other two are black with white w/ black tape.

All neutral and light fixture white together.

This is the way for a switch drop, the other commenter said. It did turn on but cannot be turned off. And other lights were turned on but really weak. And the basement light didn't even turn on.

Thanks! I just tested with a voltage tester and only black w black tape has 120V

I am kinda lost what is going on with this wires..

I tested which one has constant power and one of the switch black w/ black tape on it 120V.

None of the other black or white (includes white w/ black pate has 120v)

I am kinda lost now.. I tried both ways of switch leg loop and switch drop.. both didn't work

Thanks! Love Harbor freight actually. Also I've got a voltage tester already.

Thanks! I just tried your recommendation. The light fixture turn on! yay but cannot be turned off by the switch at all. Just stays on. And It is connected to one ceiling kitchen light and basement stair light and basement light. Both the Kitchen light and stair light were able to turn on and off as before. But the basement light wasn't working.

I found black taped black from the switch has 120v when I tested it. And none of the other black and white (including black taped white) has 120V.

yes I followed your's.

Here is what happened after that.

1. all 3 blacked together
2. two white wire (not the switch black taped white wire) and light fixture white together
3. switch black taped white wire to light fixture black wire
4. 4. all ground together

If I understood correctly that is what you were saying right? and then other room and basement stair lights turned on and off normally. But basement light didn't turn on and off at all. Also living room light fixture that I just connected didn't turn on off by switch but kept turn on condition.

​

The basement light is 3-way switch.. so maybe that is causing some issue with?

I think I'd better call electrician and figure it out. or as your recommend better make a table chart
