I recently installed Legrand Adorne light switches and outlets upstairs in all my bedrooms. I've got all of them working fine except the one light switch that turns on my outdoor balcony light. It was working fine before I changed the switch and now it doesn't turn on.
In the box behind the switch are two sets of wires. Each contain a white and black wire. There are also two separate bare/ground wires as well. The white wires and ground wires are connected to each other via wing nut. (White/White and Ground/Ground). I have one black wire connected to the "hot" terminal and the other connected to the "one pole" terminal.
I've tried switching the two black wires positions and that didn't work. I used a non contact voltage tester and checked both black wires and they are both "hot". I also took the light bulb out of the light fixture and tested the socket and that showed "hot" too. So it would seem power is there, but it still isn't working. My next step is going to be to look for a GFCI that may need to be reset. I'll update as I go but would appreciate additional suggestions. Thank you.
