Please help with Grado Cartridge hookup Wiring ???

The Grado has "G" , "R" , "L" and "H" How does this
translate into White , red, Green and Blue. I am getting a background hum with my hook up . What is the correct way . Thanks!

The letters stand for:
G = ground
R = right
L = left
H = hot

The electrical connection schematic for my Grado Reference reads as follows:
Blue = left ground
Green = right ground
White = left hot
Red = right hot

I assume the connection scheme is the same for all Grado cartridges. Hope this helps.

I have a Grado and drew a diagram as I have seen a tons of posts all asking how to wire these carts.

Hold the cart so the letters G R L H are upright/as you normally read text.
The horizontal L and R  is for Left and Right
The vertical G and H is for Ground and Hot, so...
Top Left is BLUE wire (Left Ground)
Bottom Left is WHITE wire (Left Hot)
Top Right is GREEN wire (Right Ground)
Bottom Right is RED wire (Right Hot)

Easy breezy :)
