i am a novice diy'er trying to put up some lights. Normally theres a red, a black and a green wire....which i can figure out. But in one of my rooms there is 2 reds, 2 blacks and 2 greens.......? i have tried every which way but the best i can manage is for the new light to be on all the time..! It was fine before I staarted !

glad we could help. FYI, probably more than half of the houses in the land have their lights wired like this. :wink:
