Q:Well i bought new speakers for my 92 integra and when i installed them i also wanted to get new speaker wire.how would i go about installing all new wires?would you recommend have circuit city do it or is it not as hard as it looks?

Follow the old wires. It is very simple. Chances are there is nothing wrong with the old wires.

Q:How can you make the fabric with silk fabric wrinkle free after washing?

Hand washing machine or washing machine without special injection, dilute the product with water, and stir evenly, put into the laundry, soak for 3 minutes, remove and air.

Q:do speakers function better with thick or thin wires??

well thicker wire is best especially if you have amps and subs, you can go to walmart, autozone or advanced autoparts and buy speaker wire, you can buy a roll of it, it'll say speaker wire on the roll, but stock speaker like 6 1/2 or 6x9s only need the thinner wire but you'll need the thicker speaker wire for subs and amps

Q:I'm looking to install a ceiling fan in a fixture that recently had just a light (no idea if it ever had a fan). When I removed the old light, I found that there were three white wires from the ceiling twisted together and connected to the white wire on the light fixture, one black wire from the ceiling connected to the black wire on the fixture, and three black and one white ceiling wires just capped together, not connected to the light fixture.Any idea what the last 4 wires are? I would think that I just need to leave them alone, however, I have to replace the box in the ceiling with one that is rated for a fan, which means I need to (temporarily) disconnect them. I have the breaker turned off that turned the light off, but can I be 100% sure that power to those other 4 wires if also off?

The three white wires are your neutral wires. the one black wire connected to your fixture is the wire coming from your switch. The white wire connected to the black wires are the hot wires. That one white wire connected to the black wires carries the electricity to the switch then feeds it back to the fixture on the single black wire. I never trust wire until I check it for voltage, even with a breaker off.

Q:I know the ground wire takes unused electricity to the ground but what is the purpose of the neutral wire?

The neutral returns unused electricity back to the source where as the ground provides a pathway for an electrical short to return back to the panel and then to an earth ground.

Q:i need to make a battery powered light bulb and i have copper wire at home...will it work?

You must use insulated wire.

Q:i need an egr wiring Diagram for a 2000 Chevy Malibu. the wires got pulled out of the weather tight connector. if anyone can help i'd appreciate

Connector view for the GM linear EGR valve are as follows: Pin# A=gray/w black wire,Pin# B=solid black wire,Pin# C=brown/w white wire,Pin# D=brown/w white wire(see note) and Pin# E=solid red wire! NOTE since pin C+D have the same color wire the correct wire must be identified by checking the voltage with the KOEO (key on engine off) the right brown/w white wire should have a 5volt reference voltage with the key on engine off! Hope this helps.

Q:I need help hooking a remote wire to my jvc kd-g220.

OK I see we have all backyard car audio installers answering car audio question ....there all wrong . Although there methods may work but they are not right an some could cause melted wires an possibly fire. So to do it correctly if you have an aftermarket head unit your remote wire is always always blue/w white strip, never use solid blue avenue though solid blue wire is a positive turn on wire its used for your FM antenna turn on for your radio never use it for remote turn on. If you have factory radio it does not have a remote wire nor does it have a positive turn on (acc) wire on back of radio. Some Chevy's do but most don't so you would have to hook your amp remote wire to your ignition wire which is either a thin brown wire or thin dark green wire which you can get at the ignition switch just look under the dash to ignition switch an follow the wires down to where its easier to work with an tap on. I recommend you use a test light or multi meter to make sure you have the right wire. You might have to drop down the belly pan under the dash to get to it . ever tap onto an existing fuse in your fuse panel. It would work but not good idea since you have different gauge wires in there with different amp fuses , all your fuses have numbers on them for a reason meaning the fuse is protecting a certain amount of current from the electrical componants in your car so if you add another componant to that fuse that means more current an now your fuse can't protect the componant like its attended to do an keep blowing your fuse an could cause melting wires or even a fire. I strongly urge you not to use the tap in to fuse panel method,.

Q:I have some salvaged wire from a computer power supply and would like to know it's break-down voltage rating. Most hookup wire is rated at 600 volts but unfortunately, all computer stuff is now made in China. The repair job of a vintage piece of equipment requires wire that can withstand 300 VAC.

Computer power supply cables do not deliver anything like 300 volts, so I would say no, don't risk it.

Q:When you buy new earbuds/headphones there are usually two wires connected by a thin piece of rubber.Is it ok to split the two wires that are joined together when you buy them? Im wondering because i need the extra length.

In almost every case, you just grab the 2 wires close to where they're joined and pull apart gently and it will come apart with no problem at all, and will leave the insulation intact on each wire, as long as you can see the 2 separate wires this should be no problem at all (in fact a lot of earbuds and headphones come with a little rubber piece on the wire that goes up to the split to keep the wires from separating too much, that's how easy they pull apart)
