Hi all.

Removed an ancient light fitting, replaced with a newer one, the light comes on but can't be turned off with the switch. It was working before. Any idea where I'm going wrong? The old light fitting had all neutral and all live to the wrapped and inserted into the corresponding terminals and then the seperate black wire elsewhere which I'm guessing is for the switch. I'm trying to replace with a ceiling rose. Thanks
