Possibly you misinterpreted the instructions. From what I see, it's a 20 amp
rated switch that requires a neutral to function

I recently upgraded my bathroom fan from a on/off switch to a Leviton
switch
a "5, 10, 15, 30 minute" electronic model 6230M. I was thinking since it's
a
15A circuit and a bathroom fan that I'd hook it up using the "5 Amp"
wiring
diagram, a fan not going to pull anything near 5 amps right?. Black to
Line,
Blue to device and Green to ground, White/Neutral not connected. Well that
didn't work. The LED didn't even come on. So, I change my approach to use
Leviton's "20 Amp" wiring diagram which basically just means that you hook
the Leviton timer's white lead into the neutral as well. At first I
thought
that wasn't working either. When I put the power on the main line the LED
on
the bottom just blinked. I tried pushing some buttons and nothing, then
after about another minute it just started mysteriously working like it
should. I used a VO meter to test everything, the wiring is all as it
should
be. Do these switches need to "charge up" before they start working?
What's
with the 5 Amp circuit not working. Thx.
