Plan b it is then but I'm gonna check out the links as I find thia topic interesting. Thanks for all the help.

Ok lol. The guy I had out this morning, I'm guessing, knew less than me. Just one last thing. If the old switch had a port for neutral which I'm sure it did but this new switch didn't then could it be the switch thats at fault ?

Youll see from the photo above that theres a small plastic connector with a blue wire in it. I tried the blue wire to the switch in there but again, nothing happened. I also disconnected the yellow wire to the right and again, all lights in the hall and bathroom worked fine. Is it possible the...

What is the terminal block ? Im not an electrician so terminology is beyond me and would that be the case if all the lights in the bathroom and hall are working fine ?

So could this blue be connected to the ports with the red wire ? On the fan inside the bathroom, there is a blue wire connected to the neutral port which is why I assumed this was a neutral wire.

The right had side switch on the one with the issue controls the bathroom lights and used to also turn the fan on. It doesn't any more.

I can' identify one from the other to be honest. And those wires stuffed in to that one port were the same as what I had taken out as I kept all wires joined. The neutral blue wire was if I remember right the one I didn' know where it went as the old switch had a different marking for that one...

If I take out the neutral and right hand side yellow, I believe thats the live switch then nothing happens and lights still work the same.

Sorry fella. I had started a new thread but got no reply then seen this similar issue. I don't have the old wiring pics as i had deleted them foolishly thinking everything was okay but here is the new. If I take out the blue neutral and the yellow to the right hand side then nothing happens as...
