How do I change a 4-prong dryer power cord to a 3-prong dryer power cord?


Question:need to know where to put the three prongs and then where to put the green wire that is actually attached to the dryer

Answers:
Hot-Neutral-Hot

Neutral must have a bonding jumper to the frame.


homo, etc is correct. For more information on how your dryer
works, go to http://appliancequickfix.com/
If is 240 volt you have 2 hot 1 neutral 1 ground .You need connect 2 hot together and plug in hot wire placed in prong .
Green wire always is ground wire.
I think, the old method was :
Hot - Hot - Ground
However, the new method is:
Hot - Hot - Neutral - Ground(green)
