Thanks Monkey5, worked a treat

Here is the photo of the old fan with 3 connectors, 1 LS

Hi Monkey5, I still have the old fan but the old one had a timer so a LS connector as opposed to the new one but I can check if you think it might highlight something

Hi Fleeting, not sure I quite understand, are you referring to the photo I attached? The connectors are at the bottom of the photo, blue coloured not the white connectors

Here are the LED strip lights ordered from TLC - https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/tcl/search?query=KBUCLED4

I don't quite understand what you mean. The cables shown in the drawing would connect together to the switch. Cable on the right is coming from CU

Here is a drawing of the setup and I have tried various ways, but essentially from my knowledge COM connector on switch is live. So I have connected red cable from CU and brown from LED light to COM. Black cable from CU and blue cable from LED to L1. I have tried that in reverse.
