Mike, you are quite correct, if you mess about with BT telephone lines, then
you must except the consequences if something goes wrong.

Hi Billy,
That's ridiculous; I'm sure you can find a friendly electrician to do the job. I had a go at moving and re-connecting an extension box but couldn't re-connect, so a kind wife did it. We cheated and used a screwdriver as an insertion tool but you really shouldn't do that, and if it had caused any shorts, BT would have caned me.
Hth,
Mike

Trevor, thanks for the reply. I have already been in touch with BT, and they tell me it will cost £132 for an engineer to come out to my home, and fit an extension box in my bedroom.
That is the same price i payed BT for my line in the first place.
Thats why i'm thinking it would be easier to do the job ourselves.
If i could find out which colour wire goes where, my wife maybe be able to do it for me.

is it possible for blind people to wire up a BT extension telephone box?. Billy **Hi Billy,
Probably, but you need to know the colours of the 2, 3 or 4 tiny wires in the cable and the numbers of the push-down sockets in the box. You will also need a push-down tool, but they are only a few pence. Given that you might not be able to do the job without sighted help, you might as well get a vision to do it for you!
