Wow thanks roguetrader - that's a really positive response and I really appreciate it. Unfortunately, and without meaning to turn this thread into being all 'woe is me, help me sort my life out' - the very real problems I DO have is that I'm 35 with a mortgage to pay and I'm not in a trade or...

How about if I'm in my 30's!? I guess I'll never be what I really want to be. It's a shame - I dropped down to a 4 day week in my current job to do some unpaid work with a local maintenance company. After just 4 days they said they wanted to take me on as I ticked all the boxes...

Thanks for everyone's replies - I'm desperate to get going with a qualification so it's great to get some feedback. So I take it you literally can't do level 3 without 2? Or it's just that it would be too much of a jump in terms of skills and knowledge? I'm happy to do level 2 if need be...

Ok guys, I'll try an ordinary switch first of all - although this light fitting HAS worked since the plastering was done. It has just stopped working all of a sudden and no other electrical work has been done to interfere with it! I'll whack another switch on and report back, thanks.

:oops: Sorry..... switch live is NOT working, but I have a live to the lamp. I don't like using neon screwdrivers - it's been tested with a meter. Neutral is ok. Will post photos asap Cheers

Hi I have a problem with a ceiling light (on a dimmer) where the live to the lamp appears to be dead. I've tested it and for some reason there's no feed at all. The wiring is loop in and everything else is working including the 'switch live' but my problem is how to fix it. I'm clutching...
