ATTN: Electrical Guru's (aka...BrianG)

[JThiessen]

I had one string where the last half went out, but all the rest only have lights here and there go out - almost always its a green or a blue light that went out.

On the string that had the last half go, I snipped off the wires one light before the last working one. I then cut off about 4 lights worth out of the bad end, and tried to rewire it (its a three wire set up) the bad section back on (thinking that there might be one light in there causing the rest to bad). I tried three or four different combos of the wires, but couldn't get anything to light up (even the part that did work). Didn't take me long before they ended up in the dumpster.

Oh well, I tried!
