Are you asking cos your into it or because those type of light bulbs are the right type in the swinging circle.

Well. I am sure the wire with the yellow sticky tape round it goes to the switch. The other wires I thing are part of the lighting circuit for the down stairs. There is out door lights and a single pendulum light in the garage loft. Both on sepertate switches. Regards Dave

Hi EFLImpudence, hope you are well. No, on the picture, the cable nearest the camera is the switch cable, I didn't change this one. On that photo I had removed the secondary light from the equation, you can see it dangling in the background. Here is a better picture of what was wired:-...

Hello, just an update if anybody was interested. After installing a proper 20A 4 terminal junction box secured to the ceiling joist, I decided to change the way the two strip lights were wired to it. The original setup was that both strip light were wired direct to the ceiling rose. This...

Hello, Ok installed a 20amp 4 terminal junction box in place of the ceiling rose block and it still trips. Back to one strip light now. Will call an electrician in the morning to take a look at it. I suspect it should be wired completely different and maybe just been a matter of time when...

Hello, yeah I put a new switch on the same time I put the new strip lights up. The old switch didn't look and feel very nice. But I still have the problem. I will put a junction box on and hope that fixes it. Thanks Dave

Hello EFLImpudence, hope you are well. Ok, I will fit a proper junction box tonight and see if that fixes the problem. Thanks for the reply. Regards, Dave

Hello, hope you are well. I have moved to a new house just under a year ago and seem to have developed a problem with my Garage Lights. There was two big long strip lights controlled by a single switch. A couple of few weeks ago, one of the strip lights blew a fuse and stopped working. I...

Tony, I didn't make any adjustments to the valve as this didn't fix the problem. I put the original gas valve back on. Regards Dave

Kevplumb well no I didn't expect ChrisR to help based on his reply. Regards Dave

ok. I have wasted money by taking time off work and paying people to come round to try to fix it. One engineer electrocuted himself and because I was standing next to him could have hurt me. So thats why I decided to do it myself. No comment to ChrisR. Little people like you just don't exist...

Hello, I have a Vokera 20/80 RS Flowmatic. I have a Burner problem. It very rarely lights when you turn on central heating or hot water. I have replaced the PCB and the complete Gas Valve. I have noticed that it fires up every time with out a problem when the cover is off the burners, or...

Thanks Mate for the suggestions, It looks like it is working fine now. I took the Gas valve off and took it to bits as I had a feeling it was the solenoid or PCB. Nothing exciting to look at. I then took the safety stat off and checked to make sure that nothing looked suss with that. Again that...

Hi, I still have this problem with my boiler, I just wondered if anybody had any more suggestions to try, I don't understand the last few comments, but I guess they are not Boiler related. Thanks Dave

OK, I have checked for 240 V on the Fan Terminals which is present. I have removed the Air Pressure Sensor and tested that with a multimeter and that seems to switch ok when you suck on the tube. One thing I have noticed is that the boiler seems to be working correctly now. But there is a...

Actually, Sunderland is a nice place, I can think of a lot worse places to live.. :)

I recently serviced it my self last year and replaced all the seals and Diaphragms that come with the service kit. I hoovered it out and cleaned it up like new, because the previous owners of the house looked like they never bothered. It worked great since. I live in Sunderland so we have a very...
