I should have taken a picture before I left. Everyone is happy and no one hurt. Thanks.

A huge thank you to Ragnar_AT. Your instructions were clear, easily understood for someone not in the lighting business and a very accurate diagnosis of the problem. I followed your instructions and it's all working perfectly. Bathroom is shiny and bright and back to normal too. I've figured out...

Thanks for all the messages. I'm only on quick, I'm back tomorrow. Here is a few things that may narrow things for you. Kitchen ceiling wires -Two black together into neutral, red into live, y/g into earth - The lamps only wall switch operating on & off as normal, the bathroom lamp not working...

Hi Terry. The two small wires are on the window sill for safe keeping. The power is off and there are no wires from the ceiling connected to that lamp, that mock photo was just to show the type of lamp. Photo taken with no power on and any ceiling wires are now hanging out the ceiling hole...

I'm putting up a ceiling lamp. There's no previous photos of what the wires connection layout was before. Nothing else in room like a fan etc, just a wall switch to operate it. Ceiling wires has two black, one red and one green/yellow. The bathroom light is not operating either although it was...
