Hello,
I need help I can’t get the dimmer to work. The lights are not turning on. My old dimmer switch was the lightmates digital touchscreen dimmer tad-1000. It had 4 wires - 1 black, 1 blue, 1 white and green ground wire. The light socket has 2 cables each with 2 wires- 1 black and 1 grey. The old switch was connected as follows: blue to black, black to black, white connected to the 2 grey wires tied together. Ground was not connected.
Now I’m trying to connect the new DVCL-153 dimmer switch with 4 wires- 1 black, 1 red, 1 red/white and green ground wire. I connected black to black, red to black. Now I tried leaving red/white not connected, and also tried connecting it to the 2 grey wires. Same results.
When I try to turn on the switch, nothing happens. The lights are not coming on. I have the Phillips led bulbs model 9290003580.
I bought the newer model PAR40 bulbs and still can’t get the lights to turn on.
Any ideas I can try?
Thanks
Mowgli
