Hello wonder if anyone can help. I have installed 6 led downlights that I would like to be controlled from a 2 gang dimmer, 2 banks of 3 . Have gone from a single pendant/ single switch.
After having other issues ( one dimmer would turn on/off other electricals connected in the loop. After Swapping the live to the switched live, 5 in total. The result is one side permanently on, other side works as it should.
I have tried bridging the com, bridged between the 2 switched live, one thing i have not done though, i have not joined all the downlights together. I have ran cable to 1 2 3 then ran cable to 1 2 3. From the junction box, put all the lives into wago, the neutrals into a connector and the earths into a connector, then the 2 switched lives.
Is this the issue that led have not been wired together, 1 2 3 4 5 6 ?

Sounds like you have mixed up the connections in the JB.
A few pics of the JB, switch and anything else you think relevant might help.
