Dryer wiring (3 wires to 4)

If ya move or get a new dryer and need a 4 wire setup instead of a 3 this might be of interest:

You put the white in the middle for neutral and

 red to the red, black to the black,

 attach the green to the frame.

TIP: when connecting these do not strip the nuts or screws. Overtighening will only cause a hotspot and make the dang thang burn out. Been there Done that.
