    Need wiring schematic for Hunter Fan
    My problem concerns a Hunter Ceiling Fan.
    Both the fan and the lights are controlled by a common wall switch. The fan speeds are controlled by a pull chain. A second chain selects which lights:
    1. Four small lights are above the fan blades and lie within a cut glass bowl that also includes the fan motor.
    2. Four standard base bulbs extend below the blades.
    3. One center bulb fills the space below the lower four bulbs.
    By pulling the second chain repeatedly, I can select between the upper 4 lights, lower 4 lights, center light, or various combinations. I usually have it set so ALL the lights are on when the wall switch is flipped.
    My problem: The 4 upper lights are low wattage (7.5 W) that exhibit a rather short life span, and are a pain to change. The plastic nut on one light was cracked. Only 3 of the 4 lower lights worked due to a bad ceramic socket. The lower center light is fine. I decided to rewire the light kits. The ceiling wires had a black and single red connected to fan black and fan blue, white connected to fan white, and ground that was not connected to anything. The 4 upper lights were connected with a dual white "extension cord" style wire. One white wire was connected to 2 blue wires and the other was connected to a black wire. Assuming the center post of each socket should be black, I used my Ohm meter to distinguish between hot and neutral. I attached some black vinyl tape to mark the wire that should be black. How should the "extension cord" be attached to the 2 blue wires and 1 black wire?
