I am trying to convert an old 4 prong jack to the modular type. I bought an RCA modular wall outlet (model TP247) that has 4 wires (green, black, red, yellow) attached to screws with the other ends stuck in little holes in the top. I have coming from the wall, two sets of wires. Each set has a solid orange wire, an orange and white, a solid blue, a blue and white, a solid green and a green and white wire. The instructions say "connect the 4 wires to the corresponding terminal posts. Be sure to match wire colors"
1) Do I just leave alone the wires on the back of the outlet since both ends of each are attached, and then attach the appropriate wires from the wall to the screws?
2) How do I "match" two sets of 6 wires colored orange, blue, and green and striped versions of each to the 4 screws with black red, green and yellow ???
