I am trying to replace a 1 gang 1 way light switch with a 2 gang 1 way light switch, (adding a ceiling light to the existing wall light circuit but having independent control of each.) I intend to tap into an existing lighting power source - the wall light - but need to know the wiring procedure for the wall switch - any ideas anyone?

There's a number of ways that this will have been done.

Easy one first.

How many cables going into your esisting light switch
How are they connected
A picture would be good
 
Thanks 'taylortwocities' but I have now completed the project (with a little help from my sparky neighbour!) Thanks again for offering help so quickly.

you get a reply within 31 minutes and then get an electrician to help, why bother asking in the first place
