Hi. I'm hoping someone can help me with a problem I'm having swapping a light switch.
I'm redecorating the house and replacing old switches as I go, using crabtree platinum. I've come to do the one in the hall which will be operating the porch (1-way), hall (1-way) and landing (2-way). The switch is a 3 gang, 2-way (see below).
The hall switch (middle terminal block) works fine, but when I connect up the porch to the left hand switch (RH on pic)- Brown to L1 and Blue to L2 (nothing in L3) - the porch light is on when the switch is off and vice versa. I've tried connecting the porch wires to the other switches and when I connect to the middle switch it works correctly but the same problem occurs when I connect them to the right hand (LH on pic) switch.
Has anyone got any idea what's going on and how I can sort it out?
Thanks
