[QUOTE="wobaguk, post: 547741, member: 37195"] Got a weird fault I am trying to diagnose, and its twisting my brain... The living room light flashed on switch-on, then wont come on. OK a bulb probably blew, check the Lighting fuse on the RCD, nope (reset it anyway just in case), new bulbs dont work, definitely not the bulbs... Two other independent lights nearby now dont come on. They dont work on the same switch, and EVERYTHING else on the lighting circuit is working fine. I thought I understood how a lighting circuit (as a loop) worked, but this seems to contradict it. What am I missing? Thanks [/QUOTE]
