A bulb blew in the bathroom light last week, and after resetting the

I have purchased a new light, thinking that it was the light fixture
that must have been broken, but to no avail.

I wondered whether any kind souls out there would take a look at this
mickey-mouse wiring diagram of the current fixture and tell me if
something looks suspect, and how to diagnose/fix the problem? Bit
hard to shave at 6am without a light! It has a dimmer switch on it,
but when turned on - nothing happens.

I have very little experience of electrical matters any how, but can
usually work things out.

Many thanks,

Shall we start with the brown wire connected to the neutral terminal?
That in itself wouldn't stop the light working unless perhaps it is an
electronic transformer for low voltage lamps.

Where does wire 2 go? Do you have a two-way switch?

Brown and blue wires just go into opposite side of a plastic
bulb-holding fixture that the bulb screws into. Not sure what you mean
by two-way switch - there is only one switch for this light?

Thanks,
