These wires your trying to connect, you working with the stats under the access panels, or at the top of the heater?

The only wires you have to mess with on a replacement is the ones on top for the power supply, the ones in the panel are factory installed.

Three wires in-comming with a ground and three wires at top water heater access cover, never incountered a water heater needing that many wires for power, where do you live?

Some wacky colors. Was this purchased from oveseas?
Also, Do you have access to a install. manual or could you provide a link to the product you have from the manuaf. web site?

The blue and yellow wire in usally found on the stats, you will find a black and red on the top of the heater, and the black and white are the power source, then there is the gounds, green or bare wire.
He talks of 4 wires for the power source. Never seen a source with four wires.
