wire one, had three inner wires, 1 x red, 1 x black, 1 x green/yellow
wire two, had three inner wires, 1 x red, 1 x black, 1 x green/yellow
wire three, had two wires, 1 x red, 1 x black
the above wires were connected to four point on the light housing as follows,
point one, all three red wires connected together
point two, both green/yellow wires connected together
point three, two of the black wires connected together (these are the two black wires from wire one, and from wire two mentioned above, the three wire wires)
point four, one black wire connected on its own point (this is the black wire from wire three, mentioned above, the two wire, wire)
my new light's has three connection points, and are as follows;

(A SYMBOL) i guess this where the green/ yellow wires will connect
N
does anyone know how i can wire in my new light's three connection points, to my old original light's, eight wires ?
any help will be very nice, and enlightening so to speak, it's a little dark in this room now. thank you
I have the same problem what was your solution? Been trying to work it out and driving me crazy. Otherwise does anyone know a good electrician (doesn't charge an arm and a leg) who can quickly fix this.
