Central Heating Timer Wiring

    I have just swapped out a faulty analog APT heating timer with another new one. However, after wiring it up, the light is on even when it is in the 'off' position.
    Have I wired it incorrectly? There were 6 wires in all -
    2x blue - going into the neutral.
    1x brown - going into 'live in'
    2x brown - going into 'live out'

    I had marked that central 'live in' wire with a marker before freeing the wires from the faulty timer - but didnt realise it was non-permanent marker so it must have come away with my fingers :rolleyes: So theres a possibility that the brown wires might not be wired correctly.
    However, apart from the light, the timer appears to work.

    Do I have a problem here or is this some updated form of this particular timer?
