Leviton Decora Light Dimmer Switch - Page 9 Questions & Answers
Have a switch from ceiling light cat # 573, very
If there is an electrical specialty store in your area, i would remove the switch and take it there. They may be able to help in either replacing or rebuilding it. That sort of control is not difficult to recreate, but it is an uncommon feature. A good electronics tech can show you how and get you the parts to do it. i am NOT talking about Radio Shack. i mean a mom and pop shop that specializes in electrical and electronics.
i hope this helps

Dimmer turns on/off 3 spotlights but they wont dim
Questions to answer so I can answer/resolve your problem:
1) Is this a rotary style dimmer?
2) Is it a toggle or slider type?
3) Is this on a 3-way circuit (that has 2 or more switches that can turn the lights on or off)
4) Is this on a single switch circuit?
5) Is this a brand new dimmer switch?
6) Is this an old dimmer switch?
7) Are the light bulbs in the spots regular incandesant or halogen bulbs?
8) Are the light bulbs in the spots CFL (compact flouresent lamps)?
With this information, I can tell you what the problem is:
If you answer "YES" to #1, and or #6 then the dimmer is faulty and should be replaced.
If you answer "YES" to #8, then you have the wrong dimmer for the bulb type, as CFL's require a specific dimmer type in order to dim them.
Please provide some more info and maybe we can help you figure out what's wrong.
Hope you find this Very Helpful and best regards!

I am replacing a double switch which controlled
One side of the switch has Brass screws, and the other has nickle screws. there is usually a small brass bridge between the upper, and lower switch screws on the brass screw side. if you are feeding both from a common power source leave the little brass bridge in place, and screw on of the screws in all the way. Put the energised wire under the other brass screw. Bare copper wire goes to the green screw. The power will be transferred to the nickle screws through the corresponding switch. put the wire to the fan on one, and the light on the other. Presto.

not familier with this model but yes sounds like its wired incorrectly, usually on a 2 way switch you will only have 1 live comming in, it will feed common in, the bottom 2 will connect too the bottom 2 on the other switch in opposite order then the common on the other switch will fed the light.

On the combination Two Switches #5224 do I break
No need to break the tab... that' on the power IN side of the switch..
You only need one power in (in most cases).
The power outs are separated already.. one goes to your first load and the other will go to the second.
The white wires are your common and are hooked together with the other whites in the box... don't hook them to the switch.
Hope this get's ya all connected... let me know if you need more assistance.

Conlog Hi Ola-daniels, Please see below steps to assist with RFCON error :
* Press the Back arrow on the keypad - this step is to refresh the UIU ( the device)
* Type # 75 # - this is to check the signal strength
If it does not go back to the normal display
*Type # 80 # - this is to refresh the meter
Then lastly you can repair the meter and the UIU by # 36 #
The above steps will work better if you are outside the house because the meters uses the radio frequency connection
The above error will occur in instances of bad weather conditions or if there is load shedding or power failure
If the problem persists after trying the above you may contact the municipality or the service provider."

Can i use this tester to check for any live wires. im installed a new light fixture on my porch from existing wiring but lights not tuning on
However, I can provide guidance on using a basic voltage tester to check for live wires when troubleshooting a light fixture installation.
Using a Voltage Tester:
Non-Contact Voltage Tester:
If you have a non-contact voltage tester, it's a handy tool for quickly identifying live wires without direct contact. Hold the tester close to the wire insulation or the terminal screws, and it should indicate the presence of voltage without making physical contact.
Contact Voltage Tester:
If you have a contact voltage tester, make sure it's designed for the voltage level you're working with (e.g., 120V for residential electrical systems).
Turn off the strength to the circuit on the circuit breaker or fuse box.
Safety First:
Always prioritize safety. Make sure the power is turned off before working on any electrical components.
Test the Tester:
Test the voltage tester on a known live circuit to ensure it's functioning properly.
Check the Wiring:
Once confirmed, turn off the power to the circuit you are working on.
Use the voltage tester to check each wire connected to the light fixture. Verify that there is voltage on the wires.
Neutral and Hot Wires:
Typically, a light fixture will have a hot wire (usually black) and a neutral wire (usually white). Make positive each wires are linked properly.
Ground Wire:
Check for a ground wire and ensure it's properly connected. Some light fixtures may have a green or bare copper wire for grounding.
Switch Position:
Ensure that the wall switch controlling the light fixture is in the ON position.
Bulb Check:
Confirm that the light bulbs in the fixture are working and properly installed.
Circuit Breaker Check:
Double-check the circuit breaker or fuse for the lighting circuit to make sure it hasn't tripped or blown.
I have a onan 4000 LP generator when I try to start it it starts and then goes dead?
Here are some common troubleshooting steps to help you identify and potentially resolve the problem:
- Fuel Supply:
- Check the LP (propane) fuel supply. Ensure that there is enough propane in the tank.
- Check for any obstructions or kinks in the fuel line.
- Air Intake and Exhaust:
- Make sure the air intake and exhaust are not blocked. Lack of proper ventilation can cause the generator to shut down.
- Choke Position:
- Check the position of the choke. If it's set to "Choke" for starting, make sure to gradually move it to the "Run" position once the generator has started.
- Fault Codes or Indicator Lights:
- Look for any fault codes or indicator lights on the generator control panel. These can provide clues about specific issues.
- Oil Level:
- Check the oil level in the generator. Some generators have a safety feature that shuts them down if the oil level is too low.
- Spark Plug:
- Inspect the spark plug for fouling or damage. If needed, clean or replace the spark plug.
- Fuel System Issues:
- Inspect the fuel system for any leaks or issues. LP generators may have a fuel filter that needs to be checked and, if necessary, replaced.
- Carburetor:
- The carburetor may need cleaning or adjustment. If it's clogged, it can lead to stalling issues.
- Battery Voltage:
- Ensure that the generator's battery has sufficient voltage. A weak or dead battery can affect the starting process.
- Generator Load:
- If the generator is under a heavy load, it may shut down. Try starting it without any load and then gradually add loads.
