Hi Guys,

I would like to replace my old dimmer 2 gang 2-way switch for a 2 gang 2-way regular MK switch.

Could you please advise with the wiring?

Many thanks,
Rod

The new switch is an MK Logic Plus K4872 WHI

Keep the wiring in each switch module separate from the other: Do not mix up!

On the RH switch, put the wires in C on the old switch into COM (terminal 4) on the new switch.
Put the wire in L1 on the old switch into terminal 1 on the new switch.

Similarly with the left hand switch: C to COM, L1 to 1 and L2 to 2.

What is wrong with the red in the C terminal?

Thank you for your comments.

So it should look like this?

Something went wrong with the flash and I photoshopped the red in terminal C.
