    The phone company will connect the new line to the black and yellow wires at the interface outside. Somewhere between where the lines to the 2 phones split off and the new phone, you need to connect the yellow and black to the red and green to the new phone. I think it is yellow to red, and black to green, but not completely sure. Dig back in this forum a couple of week ago, and I think there is a similar question.
