The wife bought some new ceiling lights for the kitchen about a month ago. They were cheap from Amazon. The old chandeliers have hung in three different houses and are easily 30 years old. I’m pretty sure they were expensive at the time (I did not ask). Now the wife is looking for a less primitive country look and moving to more farmhouse. That’s what she tells me, they are just new hanging lamps as far as I’m concerned.
Wednesday afternoon I took the old one down, wired the new one just to make sure it works before actually hanging it. The lamp lit even though the switch was off. Something isn’t right and I can’t figure it out, after many attempts and plenty of checking I’m stumped. It doesn’t help that the contractor was pretty free with paint so it is difficult to figure out black vs white.
I moved and replaced the one over the island with little trouble.
A more experienced buddy is coming today to help me with the one over the table.
What confuses me, is I’m the one who put up the previous light with no trouble.
I’m not sure why a simple home repair always turns sour.
