Hello there.

Just joined to ask for help with my newly purchased used ceiling light.

There are 5 bulbs on the ligh and 3 wires: one red, one blue, one black. 1 build lights up when I hook the red and the blue wires to the house circuit (old house, no ground). 2 bulbs light up when I hook the black wire to the same spot as the red one. The 3 other bulds light up when I hook the black wire to the same spot as the blue one (picture). How do I get all 5 bulbs to light up together?

Thanks for your insight!

    Sounds like you need to connect the red and blue from the lamp to one of the house wires and the black from the lamp to the other house wire.
