   Hello there

   
   

   Let me clear you that removing a 4-prong electric dryer cord, as you need to replace it with a 3-prong electric dryer cord are easy as you follow these easy steps so far.

   
   

   First of all you must disconnect the black wire, which is the most important part and it is one of the hot connections as well, from the left side post by removing the terminal s***w. This is one-half of the 240-volt connection. Just do it gradually, and go further.

   
   

   First step is complete than you should go for the next. Here you have to disconnect the red wire, which another hot connections, from the right side post by removing the terminal s***w. This is the other half of the 240-volt connection. Half of your work is done here.
   
   Now all you have to do is to disconnect the white wire from the center connection. It is used for the neutral connection. Once it is done, than you should disconnect the green wire from the machine case by unscrewing the green s***w.

   
   

   The next step is critical to return your electrical connection to factory condition before installing the 3-prong cord! Locate the white machine wire that is now connected to the neutral (center) s***w terminal. You can easily disconnect it and then you can install it under the green ground s***w.

   
   

   Thanks
