Tommyhelmet Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I have just changed a light in a bedroom and when I turned the power back on and turned the light on it stayed on for a couple of seconds and then went off. The dimmer switch flashed green for a couple of seconds and then back to white and now it has no lights on whatsoever. The light is wired up correctly so unsure what has happened. Any ideas?

msgreenf Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 try pushing in the air gap on the top to the right then back to the middle position to let the dimmer reboot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyhelmet Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 I tried this but nothing seems to happen. When I put the light globes in the light they flash on and off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyhelmet Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 I’ve just taken the globes out and put them back in and the dimmer switch flashed green lights and the white light has come back on but when I turn the lights on it shuts down again.

ekohn00 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Could you have old switches with a LED you haven't used before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyhelmet Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 I’ve put new led globes in with the new light but when I remove them the dimmer goes off. I’m going to get some different globes and try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 what model dimmer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyhelmet Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 It’s actually a wireless keypad. I’ve just moved into a property that has Control4 already installed so trying to get my head around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyhelmet Posted September 16, 2021 Author Share Posted September 16, 2021 It was the led globes. I changed them for halogen and it’s fine now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
