Help with wire location

[johnnyb]

Can you take a switch off and tell us what colours go to what terminations... Com, L1 & L2

Without that we can only guess

This is the picture i took today when finding switched live. Any good?   (Upstairs Switch)

Cheers

OK....

so assuming that the other switch is wired the same and it is how you've said.....

Connect the two reds from the T&E and the two blues from the 3&E together (this is the permanent live)

Connect the two reds from the 3&E together

Connect the two blues yellows from the 3&E together (this is your switched live)

Connect the two blacks from the T&E together (this is your neutral)

Obviously connect your Earths together

Now your light connects to the switched live, neutral and earth
