Why are me ceiling lights doing this?

I don’t have one to hand but I think I’ll open it up to check whether there are any loose connections, but it seems strange the regular/consistent flashing. Thanks so much for replying. It’s at least given me a starting point to investigate further.

Why are me ceiling lights doing this?

Nothing at all has changed, not even a bulb! It just started happening one evening when I switched them on. They only flash once switched on, not when they’re off. The video shows one half of the room (8 bulbs). The other half of the room (6 bulbs and linked to a separate light switch/dimmer)...

Why are me ceiling lights doing this?

Hi all, does anyone know why my living ceiling lights have started to do this? Their LED lights linked to a dimmer, and have worked for the last couple of years since I moved into the place. Is this something that I can fix myself or should I leave it to the pros?

Great reply thank you mate. Reassuring that even though it might not be perfect, it doesn't sound particularly unsafe. No idea how to visually establish the flex given that the wires are hidden behind the walls. I think you know by now that i don't even tick the novice box on this one.

Super helpful, thank you mate. Just for clarity, which is the earth connection on the Tado?

Do they make sense at all if the first pics at the top of the page are taken into account? Apologies for asking so many questions - should i get a pro to look at it or reckon this is something i can resolve myself?

Thanks for your reply. Now this could be my third act of stupidity in a day, but is this something i can test by switching the wires around? Or can this cause damage to me/the unit?! If not, how could i check at the other end? I know it doesn't sound/look like it, but i'm usually fairly adept...

Hi everyone, wonder if someone can guide me on this please? I bought a Tado to replace a Honeywell T6360B but stupidly, i forgot to take a photo of the wiring before taking it off the wall. I then (second act of stupidity) followed a YouTube video which told me where i thought the wires should...
