    Rewiring an antique porcelain two light pull chain ceiling fixture
    I have a two light ceiling pull chain light fixture and need to rewire it. I have one new porcelain Leviton pull chain socket and one new regular porcelain socket without a pull chain. Neither socket have the wires coming off the socket. The original cloth wiring on the old sockets don't help serve as an example of how to wire the light. I'm only moderately experienced with simple wiring but can't figure out how to rewire this so I can turn it on and off with the chain. Help me please with simple instructions.
