I thought I'd change a light fitting in my Mum's ( the old one belonged to Noah ).
I have done this a few times in my own house and have had no problem but this time I seem to have got the wires mixed up and the light is on permanently and wont switch off at the wall.
Some of the wires were loose in the old fitting so I didn't see where they were connected.
There are two cables coming out of the ceiling each with red,black and earth wire(just copper). I connected the two red wires together and the two black wires together and then connected them into the block attached to the new light fitting already wired (brown(red) blue(black) and green/yellow(earth).
What have I done wrong ?
