Hi
I have a hallway light that has stopped working. It works off of 2 switches, a single dimmer downstairs and a double dimmer upstairs (with the other switch controlling the landing light)
I removed the single dimmer switch downstairs and replaced it with another dimmer switch from the bedroom and all worked fine, so I assumed it was the dimmer switch and have bought a new one. The markings are slightly different but I wired it up as the previous switch:
Old single dimmer switch:
Red - squiggle with an arrow through
Yellow - L2
Blue - L1
Upstairs double dimmer:
Red - squiggle with an arrow through
Yellow - L2
Blue - L1
New single dimmer switch:
Red - C
Yellow - L2
Blue L1
But when I put the power back on it didn't work, have I done something wrong? Is there another problem?
Thanks in advance.
