Light switches mixed up after changing light fittings

Anonymous user 01/03/2024 - 2.49 PM

I replaced 2 light fittings (bedroom 1 and bedroom 2). I managed to fit them and both are working fine, however, I later discovered a problem. The bathroom light no longer works, instead the switch is controlling the light in bedroom 2. The landing light also isn't working but the switch doesn't seem to be controlling anything. It is feasible that the circuit could run from bedroom 2 to the bathroom then to the landing. There are 3 other bedrooms upstairs which don't appear to have been affected. The house is about 37 years old. Each ceiling light fitting has 3 cables, each with a red, black and green/yellow wire. I guess I must have connected the wires incorrectly somewhere. Can anyone help me to fix it? Thanks Richard
