Hi. I hope you can help. I am trying to fit 2 pendant lights to replace 2 spotlights in my kitchen ceiling. There are 10 spotlights in total and 3 switches which are all wired to turn them on and off at each switch. I have removed one spotlight and connected one pendant light to the existing wiring. Note: there are two cables coming in to the new light - as it was wired like that when I removed the spotlight. When I tested it all the ceiling lights still work fine but the new pendant light turns off and on in a regular pattern ie on / 2secs / off / 2secs /on / 2secs / off / 2secs / etc Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Are you sure the spotlights are mains voltage? I wouldn't consider it impossible that some 230 V LED lamps do strange things when connected to 12 V.
