[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 509222, member: 250"] As Andy said.... The problem should be simple to diagnose for any person familiar with the concept of a Supply to multiple Switch & Load arrangements.. either looped at switch, or at load... and/or with any mixture of new/old cable colours... There are multiple combinations of how it could have originally being wired.. I would guess you have shorted something out somewhere.. But without testing the individual cables with a suitable meter it is almost impossible for anyone to diagnose remotely what you have done.. The quickest and safest solution would be to get someone to come and diagnose exactly what you have and how it needs to be reconnected. :coffee [/QUOTE]
