Wiring Extractor Fan with Timer
Hi,
I realise that this topic has been extensively covered elsewhere, and so I apoligise for bringing it up again... I have attempted to wire up the fan I have to the light circuit. It is a JB arrangement and the JB in question is the last in the loop. Therefore, the cables I have coming in/out of the box a 1) Circuit Cable 2) Switch Cable 3) Fan Cable (triple+earth) 4) Cable to lights I have connected the cables up as follows: - Red from Circuit Cable, Fan Cable and Switch Cable - Yellow from Fan Cable, Red from Cable to Lights and Black from Switch Cable - Black from Circuit Cable and Cable to Lights and Blue from Fan Cable - All earths The result I get is that when the lights are off, the fan is on. When I turn the lights on, the fan stays on until the timer decides to turn it off. I am therefore thinking that there is something wrong with the fan, but there could also quite easily be something wrong iwth my wiring :-). Is there an easy remedy for this, or do I need to send the fan back? Cheers Tim |
