Help Please With Pull Cord Nightmare
Posted: Sun Jan 05, 2020 1:22 pm
Hi. I have been trying to fix pull cord under my stairs for weeks now. No luck.
Fusebox and bulbs are fine. Tested both.
I have red wire in COM. Black wire in L1. Earth is taped at the end.
I have a slight worry that I can see bare earth wire up grey wire sheath for the three.
I also have a worry that I accidentally tried the black and red in the wrong ports at first. Could this have caused damage?
With the earth wire I tried attaching to a small bolt in the cord switch housing which I assume is for that reason?
Im completely out of ideas. Is it worth just buying a new switch? It seems to be clicking OK?
Your help is much appreciated.
