Well   This is my Second Go at this Particular Build.

Get a Used Power supply in Working Order.
open it.  Get all the wires in Groups. All the Backs, Reds,Orange,Yellow.

Keep  the Brown Together with the Orange,
The Green Goes to Switch along with a Ground Wire
The Grey Wire to and LED Along with a GND Wire and a 330R
The Purple To an LED Along With a GND Wire And A 330 R

I Have 3 Sets of Gnd Wires Too many to Put on one Banana Plug.
The Yellow ones to one Female Banana Plug .
The Orange and 1 Brown to One Female Banana Plug.
The Blue,White Not Need it. Just put Heat Shrink on them.


You Need a Resistor 10 OHMS 10 W  Between The Ground Wires and the Red Wires.

See Pictures. MAke sure to Heat Shrink All your  Connections. Be careful   Disconnect Power Supply If checking Wires Etc.

My Build Did Work Fine . Till Today. It was not Turning ON. 
So I Open it And Was checking Cables Etc.

And Got A SHOCK!!!!!!!!   and Killed The Power Supply.

So i Have Learned ...  PULL THE PLUG.... DOUBLE CHECK THAT POWER IS NOT ON. PULL THE PLUG.


I Got Careless  Distracted,  just be Careful.

Now Go and Build Something.

By they Way This was My Very 1st Shock..........
