Looking at outlet and if the round ground hole is on the bottom, the white wire comes from the left side and the black, the right. Reverse if ground hole is on top.

What is order by color to airflow sensor 93:Dodge dakota 5.2'itr

Simple match up the colors of each wire but look for closely as some wires may for example be white and the other may be white with a black stripe on it. Just an example for all wires just be sure they match up with coordinating color. Good Luck.

Need to know what wires go were.what wires go to black-white-green.for 115v.

I'm not sure what your question is - it's not real clear.
What I can tell you though:
Black = HOT wire
White = Neutral wire
Green = Ground

Do NOT mix these up - always connect the wires to their same corresponding colors.

I'm sorry if this doesn't help - you might try searching the issue by your model number on either google or youtube.

TV fell and now only have black and white picture No color.

if you were using a straight coax connection you might want to try HDMI, on a Cable or sat box or if you are using component connections make sure they're all color coordinated. just because one input may be damaged doesn't mean other inputs are damaged try using a Blu ray player you know is good, checking different types of connectors and different inputs. If you get the same results off all inputs then the tv has sustained damage, might want to check prices at Walmart cuz it ain't gonna be worth it to have it fixed

Need to change the power corrd to a 4 prong from the 3 prong but the 3 prong cable isnt color coordinated, how do I hook up the new power cord?

The new cord has a green ground wire; two hot wires, which are black and red; and a white neutral wire. Attach the neutral to the middle connector and the two hot wires to either end of the terminal.
In order to safely ground the machine the green ground wire must be securely connected to the dryer frame. There may be a screw on the frame where you can attach the ground.

110 line in to light switch. How do you continue 110 line out to other oulets or switches?

Add another line to 120V switch.
To begin, inside your switch box, there must be at least two cables.
Each cable has a black-wire and white-wire and bare ground wire.

If your box has only one cable, then you cannot use that for your junction.

OK, your box has 2 cables.
One cable comes from circuit breaker box. These are called Line wires. There is a Black Hot and White Neutral.
The other cable goes to light. These are called Load wires.

You are going to add a new cable with a black-wire and white-wire

In back of box, the white wires are twisted together and covered with wire nut.
These white wires are called Neutrals.
Add your new white wire to these other white wires.

The switch has 2 black wires. One black wire is the Hot line wire.
Add your new black wire to the switch screw that has the Hot.
Of course the switch has 2 black wires, so how do you know which is the Hot.
Turn light switch off, turn power ON, and test each black wire to bare ground wire.
Tester lights up on the Hot.

Review:
New white wire connects to other white wires that are twisted together and covered with wire nut.
New black wire connects to Hot wire.
Ground wires are connected together.

On your new receptacle, the black wire connects to brass screw, and white wire connects to silver screw.
Screws are color-coded to tell electrician how to wire.

If you have 3 white and 3 black as well as a ground,how do you hook it up ?

If I understand correctly, your are replacing a GFCI receptacle with another GFCI receptacle

And your existing GFCI has 3 black and 3 white wires

And there is not a switch involved in the changeover.

I downloaded the manual from Lutron
http://classic.lutron.com/CMS400/techinfopage.aspx?id=22163

Every wiring diagram in manual shows:
Black wires connect to brass-colored screws
White wires connect to silver-colored screws

The brass and silver colored screws are typical of all residential receptacles. The color-code tells the electrician which terminal gets the black and white wires.

Are you having a problem putting 3 wires onto 2 screws?
It is a common problem.
You can buy a short piece of white and black wire at hardware store
Lets work on the black wires as example:
Strip back insulation on short piece of black wire
Hold together two of your black wires and start twisting them together
Now add the short wire to the two black wires you started twisting
Now twist together the two blacks and short black
So three wires are twisted together and you have a short lead that can connect to screw on GFCI
Put a wire nut over the twisted wire
Now you're ready to connect other end of short black wire to brass-colored screw
This reduces the number of wires that connect to screws

I need to connect an Alpine Stereo to a 12v battery in a boat. I know that that is not recommended but we got it used. I am not sure which wires to connect to where. Could you please help me?

Connect the yellow wire directly to the battery (this is constant 12v power, to maintain memory settings). Red wire gets wired to the switched 12v system (so that the stereo turns on and off with the ignition). Blue wire (or blue/white) would be for an antenna or an amplifier (if not used, just seal it off with electrical tape). Orange wire isn't used (that's a dimmer wire for tapping into a car's dash light dimming). Black is ground. The rest of the colored pairs (gray, gray/black, green, green/black, white, white/black, purple, purple/black) are the speaker outputs. The wires with the black stripes are the negative wires in each pair. They usually say on them which color corresponds to which speaker location (front left, rear right, etc). If not, take a look on the Alpine unit - sometimes there's a decal or diagram on there, or a list, which will tell you which wires to connect to which speakers.
