Step 5Lower Power Unit Dissection
,
Pull the plug from any power source and do not put it back in until the last step.
Take the lower power box apart.
Note the wiring, as yours might be slightly or totally different to mine.
Inside the power box I found - the ground (green) wire connected to the power box wall with a screw - the neutral (white) wire went directly to the lamp head - the hot (black) wire connected in series through the ballast coil then went to the lamp head.
Simply remove the ballast coil and crimp the capacitor between the two black wire ends. Cut the white wire and crimp the resistor between the white wire ends. Insulate any exposed metal (I used heat shrink but electrical tape will work fine). Close the power box with the cover plate.
