I live in a flat and recently my sons' bedroom light suddenly went out. To cut a long story short we checked the obvious problems, bulb, loose wire, etc., but I then noticed that the hall light outside the bedroom was also not working. I took off the light switch in the hall and noticed (we've got old-fashioned wiring in our place) that there were three red wires leading into the socket: one was connected to the top switch terminal, the other two to the bottom one. I checked the wires with a mains tester screwdriver and all of them were dead. Does anyone know what I should try next?
