[QUOTE="Bruspark, post: 506648, member: 20106"] This can happen when there is a rats nest of old junction boxes or choc blocks under the floor or in walls as a result of DIY, bodged rewire etc. Moving or tugging the cable at the socket introduces a problem you can't 'see' but which is a hazard and will now need dealing with AND THE CIRCUITS PROPERLY TESTED before going any further. Getting a professional in asap is now the only sensible route [/QUOTE]
