Trouble with ceiling light fixture
Post Body
I have a ceiling light that died. I got a new one and tried to install it. I've done it tons of times, so I'm confident in my ability to do it, but, I've hit a snag. When I took the light off the ceiling, the wiring is odd to me. There are 2 black wires and two white. I've tried every combination to try to get the new light working. I can get the light to turn on, but the switch doesn't turn it off. I've included a pic to show the wiring. The new light has three wires, so what do I do here?
