Living rm lights switch

[jmac80]

Hello all

In the living rm at the moment i have 2 lights, each has its own switch,
Ideally i'd like to have both lights controlled by one switch instead of independently.

Here is a pic of the current: http://imgur.com/f5gra5h

Can this be converted to a normal 10a 1g 2way switch?

The new switch we have to fit has L1, L2 and com.

Many Thanks

Red in Com,
Blue and Yellow in L1,
Discard Blue link wire.

Is there any wire connected to the top right-hand terminal of the switch on the right in the photo? If not (can't be totally sure from photo), then the answer to your question is probably 'yes' - indeed even a 1g 1way switch would probably be adequate.

Kind Regards, John

Thanks guys, No nothing in top right.

In that case, do as EFLI said. In fact, as I said, you could even use a 1-way switch (since L2 is not required) - red into one terminal and blue+yellow into the other.

Kind Regards, John
