Hello, this is my first post, i would really appreciate any help!
We have a dimmer switch in our bedroom which runs 6 12v 20 watt halogen bulb lamps. Recently is been crackling when we turn it on and the lights surge if turned up high.
We assume the dimmer switch needs replacing (thats the most i could get out of the man in maplin). However when we took off the dimmer switch off to have a look there seems to be a orange plastic casing covering the wires that we can't work out how to remove, any ideas?
Also is there any particular type of dimmer switch we need to buy in order to run all those lights? the original switch is a one knob plastic thing...
Thank you in advance, i very much hope someone can help!
