Mike, All:
I am certain that, just like every electronic manufacturer, Lutron also has
their run-in revisions.
And thanks for pointing this out. Please remember, I only dealt with the
Lutron control that I bought  :))

I would suggest, when you open your Lutron control, make a drawing of the
connections of the diac and all the leads/components that go to their triac
before unsoldering anything or removing the Lutron triac. be methodical. It
can't hurt. (and if you are over forty, get your reading glasses. The stuff
is tiny.)

Safety First

    Just a heads up to everyone on the list that my lutron dimmer is
slightly different than the picture on page two of the PDF.

    The diac on my controller (FW-5FH-IV  Ivory colored instead of WH for
white) is connected between the cap going to MT1 and the resistor connected
to the same capacitor.

    If your going by the diagram when you go to put it back together, it may
not be the same as your dimmer.
