Hallway 1 Bedroom Hallway 2

Ok thanks Uploaded the pics

Thanks for you patience

Correct regarding bedroom. I changed the bedroom as above and bedroom is working. However hallway is still not switching off. I have a multimeter. But if easier should I go out and buy a new one gang two way switch for hallway?

Yeah

Hallway light is now working :-), but won't switch off :-(

Other side of hallway is currently red = L2, Blue = L1 and Yellow = Com Do I need to use this configuration where I have the problem? Confused...

Hallway is wired as you said above. Red in L2 and black into L2, all three red blue and yellow onto L1 left. Not tripping anymore but light isn't working. Does it feed from bedroom? Bedroom is working by the way but maybe wired wrong?

Both L1 is at top and L2 at bottom of switch

Can I just check I understand correctly? L2 red and L2 black All 3 wires (red, blue and yellow) together into top L1?

:-) only one blue red and yellow in hallway

Make sense. Will quickly open up hallway and confirm

Think I found first problem. The old hallway switch has one L1 (both black and blue) and one L2 (both red) and com options. The yellow must have been in the comms and I assumed it was earth. The new switch has only 2 L1 and 2 L2 options. Where shall I put the yellow.

I assumed the yellow is an earth so attached it to earth. Yes it has another switch on other side of hallway which I haven't touched luckily. There is no earth wire in the bedroom. There was a two gang before but only controlling one light.

Sure will upload new pics
