Hi, in my bedroom i had a 2 gang dimmer that powered 2 set of 3 spot lights and also had passthrough wires to other sockets. Im changing to just one pendent light. this was the original setup attached.

I have rewired the new standard light switch, the passthrough is working as the other switches work up stairs, but the single light pendent is not workig now (no power) . I tested the same switch with a single spotlight and it works but ver dim. Im not sure where the black wire goes in the switch?

To the pendent there is a red, black and earth wire.

Thanks in advance

Jeez what a mess that is, impossible really to tell you what is what there, is that after you reconnected or before you altered it?
 
looks like the OP has disappeared which is a shame, would be nice to get to the bottom of this.

"It works" and "it's safe" are not necessarily the same thing. With DIY work, they are often far from the same thing.
