This is a duel switch and the only switch that's used (ie no other switches to turn the lights on). Need help as the left switch turns on the right light and vis versa. What wires do I swap to change the left switch to turn on left light etc. Thanks! Rob

Do the switches work in the accepted way?

That is - bottom of rocker in to switch on and top in to switch off.

If not, turn the whole switch upside down.

Or swap the wiring over from one switch to the other. The terminals are clearly marked, so:

'Com' on right moves to 'Com' on left

'Com' on left moves to 'Com' on right

'L1' on right goes to 'L1' on left

'L1' on left goes to 'L1' on right
