    Led downlights flick on/off when switched on

    Replaced an outside mains pir light which works, but none of the other lights work, except the one it runs off. I took the wiring off the circuit, essentially back to how it was before, but I still have no lights indoors. When I switch downlights on the flicker! Any help would be fantastic please.

    Hi, looking for some advice.. the wall behind my tv makes clicking/popping noises when my tv is switched on and again when it’s switched off. It’s similar to the noise TVs make when they’re heating up/cooling. Don’t want the electrician to have a wasted visit if it’s nothing?
