Hi I have a light switch that has to be swapped for a timer, there are two wires I believe one should be Blue and one Black, That isn't the case they are both brown, I have traced them back and marked the black one.
The timer connection diagram is simple 5 = N(blue) 3 = L(black)
Below picture there is a connection box of sorts and its a bit messy, On the picture there is a brown wire coming (arrow in) but it connects to not just brown wires (No.2 in picture), but one of my two brown wires does connect to it, so I have a brown and (No.1) a black..arrow out is leading to the switch.
When I connect the my Brown wire from the switch (which has power) to the timer slot 5 and I put the black into slot 3 nothing works, the timer has a switch on it 1=on 0=off Auto=Timer.
The brown wire in has power it lights my screwdriver, the black wire out does not have power in any of the switch settings.
If I disconnect the black different slots are getting power depending on the switch selection, but If I connect the black to that slot with power then there is no power to the black.
There has to be a simple thing I'm doing wrong, what is it?
I would be most grateful for any help
