Hello all,
I'm hoping somebody knows a little more than me and my electrician do about the varilight touch/remote dimmer range.
I have a two gang socket in my lounge that controls the lounge light and the landing light - there are then two further one gang sockets individually in the lounge and the landing.
I wired a two gang master Varilight up in the lounge but cannot get it to work with either of the one gang slaves. In fact, the only way i've managed to get it to work is by leaving one of the existing old switches in place - but this switch can only be in one position. If you flick the switch it stops the Varilight master from working at all.
The wires in the socket boxes are red, red and black - my electrician has looked at it but can't fathom it out. I resorted to trying all wiring combinations in the switches, which took hours, but still no luck - any ideas or should I give up and go back to normal switches ??
