Fan up and running, thank you all for your help and guidance:):):)

Thanks to everybody for your help and advice, especially EFLImpudence who has been very tolerant of my ignorance. Job delayed until day off Wednesday.

If any body else is available to help out, please, feel free.

Good morning, I've had a look and the single, L+cut N, is fed from the ceiling rose and the 3 core wire from the switch

Oh blimey, would be so kind as to let me have a good mooch in the morning and find where the connections are and I will get back you you? If not then could you give me all the wiring variations and I could use the appropriate option? Thanks again

Hello again, I know I have aimed my last question (in post above)at EFLImpudence but if any body could confirm what I have asked him is correct it would be much appreciated. Thank you

Oh dear, thought the fuse was a safety net

You have been very helpful, another quickie, it will obviously trip the fuse if it goes wrong, therefore making it safe until repaired?

Thank you for your prompt reply. The timer fan worked as it should have and I am only replacing it because it didn't extract very well.The new fused switch is in the loft, i did consider feeding it down to sit alongside the bathroom light switch but given the fact I cant do this simple job, I...

Good evening all, I am new here and by no means an electrician and I hope you can help me. I have purchased a Manrose MF 100 standard fan without timer and I have a dilemma regarding the wiring. The fan I have removed had a timer and this one doesn't. I wired the main E N L into a fused switch...
