Hi all,
I have a 3 gang box with only one hot wire coming into it. Currently has a bathroom fan and 2 lights. I replaced the 2 lights with 2 ge dimmers.
Right now i have blacks from all 3 switch's connected to the one hot. the difference between this and how the original switches were wired is one switch was connected directly to the hot. And then there was a wire coming from the hot with a section striped - this striped section looped around the bolt on the second light and then the wire continued on to the fan.
Problems is when the lights and fan are on and then I turn the fan off, the lights go off too. Sometimes one goes off, sometimes the other. And does not happen every time I switch the fan off. But if I turn the fan on and off, eventually I can make the lights go off.
Any thoughts? everything seems to be grounded fine.
