Hi.
Been redecorating my daughters room. Behind her bed, was an old unused double socket. When I looked at it, as it will be more exposed in her new layout, one side seemed quite loose. I removed the screws and pulled the socket out, and tried refitting, but no matter what I have tried, that one side, the screw refuses to tighten up, and that side is able to be pulled out about 1/2cm, although it does not come completely out. you can also hear the screw pulling out making a kind of clicking noise. I removed the front again, and took a closer look, and it appears the back box, is not level, but that one side seems to sit further back than the other. I assume the screw is trying to screw in at an angle, and has elongated the screw hole. unfortunately its also on the side with the fixed lug. Apart from removing the whole back box etc, is there any other way of fixing this
Thanks
