Hi,
I am new here so i hope someone can help me with my confusion.
I have just bought a house and it seems to have a strange issue, not sure if it is cause by wrong switch or wiring is wrong.
Well this issue is everywhere but here is the issue.
For example, the light in ceiling has two switches, one downstairs and one upstairs. So when i turn on the light from one switch downstairs i can turn it off from upstairs which is great. Now the issue is when someone tries to turn it on again from downstairs switch this does not work until someone turns it on from upstairs and turns off from downstairs.
This is happening on all the so called 3 way switches. What would the issue be... wiring or switch replacement.
Thanks
