I have just moved in to my new house and found there is an issue with the landing light. The switch upstairs only works when it is switched on downstairs. If you turn the downstairs switch off then the upstairs light does not work at all. Downstairs I have 2 separate switches units next to each other, 1 for downstairs light and 1 for upstairs light. The downstairs light switch has 3 red and 1 blue wire with 2 red and 1 blue all together. The switch next to this which operates the upstairs light has 1 blue wire going into L1 and 1 brown wire in com. The upstairs switch has a red wire going into com, 1 red wire going into 1W and 1 black wire going into 2W. As I have just moved house money is a little bit tight at the minute and I would like to sort this with out the cost of an electrician if possible but it all looks a bit messy to me. I will post pics tomorrow to hopefully make things a bit more clear. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
