I have just had to replace the light switch in my kitchen and have discovered that it's a 2 way switch but there are no other switches in the kitchen. The switch itself was very old and had the wiring as follows-
looking at the wiring side of old switch red is at the top, yellow at bottom left and blue at bottom right. There are no markings on the old switch for com, L1 and L2.
I have replaced the 2 way switch with a new one and have wired it the same way red at top (com) yellow bottom left L2 and blue bottom right (L1).
First of all does anyone know why a 2 way switch would be installed when that's the only switch in that room and also have I wired up the new switch correctly?
