Sorry if there is a thread for this already, but I'm new to the forum and can't find my way about subjects I don't fully understand lol.
Really need a diagram or info, the instructions for the twin 2 way switch I bought makes no sense to a layperson like myself. I have 2 lights in the same room, they we're both connected to one switch but I wanted to be able to use them both independantly. I bought a 2 way but can't figure out how to wire it properly. the instructions only explain how to wire up like a hall landing upstairs and downstairs setup.
There are 2 twin and earth cables coming into the switch box, one for each light currently 1 switch is turning light (a) on and off and the other turns light (b) on and (a) off if light (a) is on, if light (a) is off light (b) won't come on at all. what am I doing wrong I can post pics of wiring if required.
