[QUOTE="ste.247, post: 342976, member: 23578"] Hi, I am new this forum and still finding my way around. Steptoe, if I am in the wrong section I do apologise, but as I did do it myself and I am not an electrician I thought the DIY section was the place to be. I say I am not an electrician as I am not, but I have completed the C&G 2330 and I am more than capable of changing like for like. ProDave, I have a plug tester so the polarity is the correct. I am a perfectionist and I want the things that I do to be correct. I just want to know what is causing the neon to glow when there should be no power going to it. Is it because the 13amp socket switch isn't double pole (I've read that neons can glow when not in a closed circuit)? Sorry for waffling on [/QUOTE]
