PD-6WCL - Lights On But Switch Not Working
Hello, big Caseta fan here. Never had any problems with them until now.
I have installed a PD-6WCL dimmer to control 5 outdoor lights on a barn. The lights are wired in parallel, as is standard practice I believe.
When I turn on the breaker, the lights come on at full strength. But the dimmer switch does nothing. It won't turn the lights off, nor dim them, and the LED's on the switch don't light up.
I bought a second switch and installed that to see if the first one was faulty. But I get the same result.
I bought new bulbs, which are specifically listed as being Caseta compatible. No improvement.
Then I considered whether maybe there was not enough current draw through the switch. I have a neutral wire available in the switch box, so I wired in a LUT-MLC downstream of the switch between the switched hot wire and the neutral. Still no improvement.
So now I am not sure what to do. If anyone has any ideas I would be very thankful.
