Hi, I currently have an issue with the push button flush on my toilet cistern. If I press the left hand button the flush performs as normal with no issues. If I push the right hand button for a full flush then the flow of water into the toilet bowl doesn't cut off fully. I f I then open the...

I have a Potterton Flamigo 40 boiler with a Potterton EP2000 control box. Central Heating works fine but every two days or so the hot water stops heating - usually after the CH has been on for an hour or so (at 18 degrees on thermostat). Therm. on boiler reads 60 degrees. Can get it...

Yes sorry - my mistake :) Anyway after fussing around getting all the difficult bits sorted I've just noticed the door doesn't shut on the oven properly so its got to go back - never buy from major electrical retailers, kids :)

Thanks a lot for your help guys :D

Just had a new fitted Candy Convex fitted oven delivered (2.4kW) - our old fitted oven connected direct to the 30 amp fuse cooker ring and had the same thickness cable (6mm?). However, the new cooker can be used with a 13 amp plug (although it doesn't have one fitted) and has 2.5mm cable. I'm...

Thanks for your help. :D

Thanks - see below (apologies if these are not clear or not area you need to see): Above fuses - missing is light fuseholder. Above light fuseholder on right next to standard (not used)

Checked and tightened connections and lights now work OK - I didn't notice any looseness but could be a flex fault or something. As for the CU I am unable to supply a photo as I have nowhere to upload the photo. One red cable appears to run out of the fuse holder for the lights and looks OK -...

Thanks - will check connections again. Regarding the fuse - the holder for the fuse is smaller than a normal fuse wire holder. From what I can see the previous occupant of this house had an extra circuit fitted (possibly for the power out to the shed?), leaving only one space free for...

Help! I have a problem with my upstairs lights - when switched on they do not light up - they occasionally flicker for a few seconds before going dead again. We have one light circuit in our house with both upstairs and downstairs on it. Instead of a wire fuse it has a holder with a standard...

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D Thanks, plugwash - all appears to be working. You're a star! Breezer: Sorry - I had a diagram for a standard connection, just wasn't sure what to do with the extra cable. Must have missed it in the reference section :oops:

Cheers - sussed out which is the switch cable. I still have four red cables - one from switch, one from spur and two from loop - can I twist two of these together to fit three terminals, and, if so, which?

Thanks - I'll give it a go.

This being the case I need to make this safe until I can get this rewired - any ideas how I can wire this setuo to a standard light batten (ie switch, 3 live, earth and 3 neutral)? If its any help - the 2 gang switch has the normal black back box with LI, L2 and Common at both ends. The grey...

I am trying to fit a ceiling rose - unfortunately, the original light fitting had been removed before we moved in. I have a two gang switch controlling the hall and outside light (1 way fitting). However, at the ceiling point I have three grey cables (one red, one black in each) and a white...
