How do i reconnect volage wires to turn on my fire place?

Question

My fire place switch does not work. There are 2 wires inside a box 1 white 1 black how do i reconnect them? They are low voltage.

Answer 1

u have a switch with two lugs?   it doesn't matter which one goes to which.

Answer 2

Um, how do you know they are low voltage?  No offense, but you sound like you don't know much about electricity.  You might be better off getting a pro to look at that.  They were likely disconnected for a reason.  Fireplace control systems can vary widely in their operation.

Electricity + Natural gas + a novice handyman = BOOM!

Just looking out for you.. and the firemen who may have to pay you a visit.
