I have replaced 2 ceiling roses with 2 ceiling lights (controlled from 1 swtich).
After connecting all my wires and flicking the mains switch I was pleased to find both lights working...... when I went to swtich off the lights at the light swtich 1 remained on!
I have the wiring as follows:
* mains/switch earths connected to light earths
* mains/switch lives connected to block but nothing at other side
* mains neutral connected to light neutral
* switch neutral (live) connected to light lives
How can I get the switch to also swtich off the other light?
Please understand this is a guess but I suspect the light that switches on and off has the live for other lamp in with lives instead of in with switch wire.
