Hi,
I have a double switch and a single switch in my front room. The left hand of the double and the single control the left light, and the right hand double on its own controls the right light.
I swapped my existing plastic switch for a fancy one but the switch operated upside down. E.G. Off was on and visa versa. A friend of mine said he knew how to fix it, but unfortunately after his attemptes to help none of my switches correctly at all!!
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction?
What I can tell you is, I have two 3 core and earth cables going to the double switch (2 reds, 2 blue, 2 yellow and 2 earths) but also a small red wire that connects between the two switch gangs. The single switch also has one 3 core and earth cable running to it.
I have only one live input which comes into the double socket end.
Any help would be greatly received, and please let me know if I have missed out any pertinent information.
Thanks Mr_bump180
