Check Power and Prepare Wiring

What happens here

Before connecting new lights, verify the electrical system. Use a voltage meter to check that the light switch is receiving power, confirming it's a 9-volt system. The existing wiring includes 'Mickey Mouse wiring' (splice connectors) that are not suitable for outdoor use due to potential bending and breaking. Trim these unreliable connections to prepare the wires for proper soldering.
