Can anyone help me? I am replacing the 24" flourescent light over our kitchen sink. I purchased (2) recessed light fixtures to replace the (1) flourescent. There's 1 black, 1 white, and 1 copper coming directly from the fuse box. Also, there are the same # coming from the light switch. So, I have 6 wires, and when I tried hooking up to the fuse box wires, I couldn't turn off the light. When I tried hooking up to the light switch, I got no power. Last, I attached the fuse box to the light switch, and tried powering the light from that---no luck. What am I doing wrong? Thanks
