∙ 12y agoThis is a relatively simple wiring job. Remember that all a switch is, is a means of interrupting the power coming from source (electrical panel) and travelling to load (light fixture). Without the switch, the light would stay on constantly.
The black wire is a power wire and so is the red. The white wire is a neutral wire, and the green wire is the ground. You may have to do some trial and error to get it right as I can't see the actual wiring diagram you have.
After shutting power off to that circuit, disconnect the dimmer switch and remove. Connect the two white wires together with a wire connector. Connect the two green wires. The red wire was probably part of the dimmer switch and should now be gone, but if it isn't then just cap it off.
Now connect the black wire from the fixture to one of the terminals on the switch, and connect the black wire from the electrical panel to the remaining terminal on the switch. That's it.

∙ 12y agoTo replace the dimmer switch with a regular switch, connect one black wire to the switch's black screw, the other black wire to the switch's red screw, the two white wires together with a wire nut, and two ground wires to the green screw on the switch. The red wire is likely a traveler wire for a three-way switch setup, so it can be capped off with a wire nut. Be sure to turn off the power before making any connections.

The cost to replace a dimmer switch can vary depending on the type and quality of the dimmer switch you choose, as well as any additional labor or installation fees. On average, you can expect to pay between $20 to $50 for a basic dimmer switch, but this cost can increase if you opt for a more advanced or smart dimmer switch. Additional costs may also apply if you hire a professional electrician to install the dimmer switch.
Yes, if they replace the switch at the wall.
If the light has a dimmer switch and it's not working, first check if the dimmer switch is in the correct position and hasn't been accidentally turned off. If the switch is on and the light still isn't working, there may be an issue with the dimmer switch or the light bulb itself. Try replacing the bulb or checking the dimmer switch for any malfunctions.
No, xenon lamps are not typically compatible with dimmer switches. Xenon lamps require a specific voltage to operate efficiently, and dimmer switches may not provide a constant level of voltage, which can lead to inconsistent lighting or may damage the lamp. It is recommended to use xenon lamps with standard on/off switches.

One of the things to do is if your ceiling fan is being operated by a dimmer, set the dimmer to the highest setting to stop it from humming or replace the dimmer switch with a regular wall switch.

It is very simple to install a dimmer switch in place of a regular light switch.
A star that becomes dimmer at regular intervals is called a variable star. These stars exhibit changes in brightness over time due to various factors such as pulsations in their outer layers or interactions with a companion star in a binary system. By monitoring their light variations, astronomers can learn more about the properties and evolution of these stars.
