I currently have colour change lights installed. They work off a dimmer switch which adjusts the colour. But the switches are driving me around the bend!!!!!!
I orgininally had 1way swich which opertated the 1st group of lights on/off. That was also operational to the 2way switch in which one of them could switch the 1st group on and off.
I have a 2nd set of lights which operated the same way from the other end. 1way switch to 1 of the 2way switches. The first switch appears to have the mains coming in from the consumer unit and the slave coming off it to the next switch and so on.
I thought that if I replaced the 1way switches with dimmer switches this would work in the same way.
However, what appears to happen now is you can only switch one switch on the 2way in order for the dimmer to be opertational. And if you switch the dimmer off the other end it makes the 2-way switch unoperational. So you then have to switch the dimmer on in order fro you to switch the 2way off.
So it is causing me a major headache? Can anyone help.
