Can someone give me any advice or should I just call an electrician and/or scream.
I am replacing a ceiling light with wall lights. When I removed the existing ceiling rose it was ok, except it just had 2 red wires (not 3, so I assumed it was at the end). After connecting my side-lights, nothing, except when I use the light switch it has slightly dims some other lights in the house. So after trying all combinations, I then retrieved the old ceiling rose from the bin, and connected the old light. Same problem, the light won't work and neither will the other house lights. I have disconnected and reconnected the switch, no luck. So I may have disturbed something, Is there anything else I should try before removing some more floorboards and checking the state of the previous ceiling rose? Any ideas gratefully received...
