I have a really annoying double light switch for my bathroom light, which is really strange; I've never seen this before....
One switch controls the light,
The second switch is for the extractor fan and the fan will only turn on when the light is on, after the light is turned off, the fan will remain on for roughly 10mins. During the fan timer, it doesn't matter if you flick this switch, it doesn't do anything. The same applies when the fan and light are both turned off; flicking the fan switch doesn't do anything.
NOTE: There is also a fan isolator switch above the bathroom door.
Anyone seen this sort of thing before? I really would like to replace it with a single light switch, I'm thinking I may need a double pole switch or would a simple two way do the job? I've not yet taken the switch off the wall to check the wiring going into the switch.
