Hi Wingcoax Thank you for your reply. The yellow wire has a small bit of red tape on it... Should the yellow be connected to L and the red wire connected to L1 and ultimately the blue into N? Sorry if this is basic stuff but its all new to me! Cheers!

Sorry, should have mention the cable coming from the roof is a 3-core and earth if that helps?

Ok here the diagram (I am not at home so cannot take a pic of unit!)

Hi everyone I decided to replace my timer extractor fan as the old one has never worked since moving in! Just need a little guidance if possible? Four wires from ceiling (Red, Blue, Yellow and green/yellow) I have tried wiring the new timer fan as below: L = Red N = Blue L1 =...

Many thanks for all your replies guys. If the spotlight bulb blew would that possibly knock out the dimmer also? I guess if that was the case I would have to replace the dimmer switch? Thanks again everyone!

LOL Yes quite right! Electrics and me are not on the same terms especially Transformers! The transformer is new, so is there a seperate component that deals with the dimming side! I'll try not to have any other issues with Dimming Spots! :wink:

Hi all I finally mangaged to replace what was an old Dimmable Transformer with a nice new Dimmable Transformer... However, all the spotlights (bar one, which i think has a faulty cable cos I changed the bulb!) come on but will not dim! Erm, not sure what has happened! Any help...

Hi I need to replace what was an old 250V to 12V transformer with a new one. The old kept blowing the 5A fuse wire* The new one I have purchased has on one side labeled +/- and on the other side it has 3 x 2 'other small screw connections' (Andorra AD-150) would I be right in saying...

Hi, thanks for the reply. Lowered electric box and read guage. Have a room stat and a box with lcd display for timer, boost, continous, off etc. Thanks again!

Hi Firstly what great resource this is :D Since May I have not needed to have the CH on... The hot water has been fine with the occasional Hot/Cold shower, I reset the pressure to 1.5 bar and that seems to have fixed it. (Do you normally need to reset the presssure, say, once a...

Oh and how will I know if its blown? (Looks ok no black marks or anything!?) :?

Hi Thanks for the advice. I have located the transformer and it is a deluce LIghting tech et105/d dimmable electronic transformer. It's grey and cylindrical it has a grey and a black wire coming out of the bottom. The black cable then runs into a round white 'thingy' with Ashley Rock...

Hi All Many, many thanks for all your responses. Sorry but I didn't make myself entirely clear... The lights are a 'strip' of spotlights in the ceiling! I have no idea how to even get to a transformer, will this mean removing floorboards upstairs to get to it :!: :?: Once again...

hi breezer With normal light switch get the same thing I'm afraid... Not changed any wiring. I changed the upstairs dimmer (2 x strips of 3 lights & 1 x strip of 2 lights) and that is fine?

lol! No they all flickered and buzzed!

Hi There are three wires (Green, Black & Red) In the new switch I have connected the green to Earth, Red To L1 (& tried L2 without success!) and Black is in one that has a symbol something like and 'X' (Is this Comm?) I have tried another dimmer and another normal switch and still I have...

Hi I am currently replacing A/C sockets and light switches. All is good until I changed my dimmer switch! I have (what appears to be!?) two strips of 4 bulbs (Halogen I think 20W?) after replacing the dimmer - one set works fine however, the other strip there is no lights at all? What...
