Well, i checked with my talking multimeter, and the way I said was correct, not sure why I didn't think of that before hand. Michael

But if it is the power cord I think you are right. Easiest is to find a good one or at least one that has two good wires and do a continuity check. And to confirm what has been siad the hot black is the narrow slot on the right of a outlet with the ground. On the plug the narrow straight blade is the hot, the white is wider of the two.

With the holes facing you, and the center hole down, the left would be neutral, center would be ground, and right would be hot. With the prongs facing you, the left would be hot, center ground, and the right neutral, again with the center prong down.

That's the kind that plug into the back of a computer, audio amplifier, or various power supplies. It's a 6 sided plug, rectangular in nature with one side being bowed and made of angled corners. Anyone know? Thanks [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
