Now I have placed the thicker gray in the neutral and the live in the live

I have tried every combination, and it is either inverted or always on or
always off.
You need a wiring diagram. I made exactly the same mistake when my
daughter pulled one of the wires out changing a bulb. The mistake I made
was not to credit that the wire could reach across to the switch.
Finally I realised I needed help and consulted the Collins DIY manual.
One of the roses detailed in there was what I had and then it was fixed.
Get yourself a relevant book before proceeding or call a sparky.
