Any particular brand of oil ?

Hi, I want to revamp my decking before the summer kicks in, its looking horiffic at the moment...... Whats the best way to set about this? I was thinking, jet wash it, scrub it with a brush then paint it with a B&Q product ??

I have 3 interior doors that swing open by themselves, why does this happen and is there a quick fix?

All seems to be working okay today. Thanks for the help guys, I will indeed look at the links and get gen'd up.

Right, I went back to 2wires in X and 1 wire in L2, BANG ON! Let's see if they last the night!

I have no idea what I'm doing.

I've touched each red wire with both probes and nothing has happened, I have the meter set at 200 A with a straight line.

EFLI are you saying leave the red probe hanging in the switch whilst I switch the power back on? It will just fall onto the floor?

I haven't touched the ceiling rose. I don't even know what I am testing here.....AC Voltage, DC Voltage or DC Current? And the dial makes no sense to a complete novice.

Ahh.....So that explains why its gone tits up, when I removed the plate, I noticed that one wire had become unattached, so I just whacked it back into the vacant terminal, presuming that it must have come from this, hence the lights suddenly not working in the two other rooms.

So put 2 wires into one terminal ? leaving 1 terminal vacant ?

I'm now confused as fook, I've had every possible combination bar the right one ! kitchen lights come on, bedroom light goes off (on the same click!), kitchen lights come on on correct switch, but bedroom doesnt come on at all, en suite lights havent come on under any combo (!) proper...

Amazing **** just went down, I screwed the three wires into the terminals (guess work, process of elimination) and when I pressed the light switch on, the kitchen lights came on !!! WTF ??!

No, they all went straight in. What Questions ? I answered two with the photos, the other one I answered.

Well, I now have the whole thing off the wall, one wire came away from its terminal so I took the damn thing off. Im back to square one now.

Heres the wall switch in question: And the Mains Unit:
