HELP PLEASE!
I've been replacing the old wall lights in my living room with some new ones.
Firstly, I've done a bit of a schoolboy error by not drawing the old wiring setup when taking off the old lights. Admittedly I'm not very experienced with electrics so should have done so.
Basically I have four wall lights - which I have drawn here - http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/4446/lighting1ax.jpg
Two light switchs operate them and they work in two pairs. Switch 1 operates light A and B. Switch 2 operates C and D.
I've replaced lights A and B with the wiring setup as shown and now only light B works properly, with light A working but is very very dim.
Lights C and D are as they were as I have not replaced them yet until I get A and B working. Lights C and D are currently working fine.
I've tried mimiking the wiring setup that C and D has with A and B but when I try that, only light A works.
I must be doing something wrong and was wondering if someone can help... please!
