Hello all.
I need some electrical wiring help. I am hoping this will be very simple for somebody that actually knows something about wiring.
The light in my hall is controlled by 2 switches (one on either end of the hall). I am trying to replace these 2 switches. Not knowing anything about wiring, I made sure to put the wires on the new switches exactly how they came off the old switches. This strategy did not work. I have since tried multiple combinations to no avail. :BangHead:
Can anyone give me any idea how to wire this?
The pics are the left and right side of the switch. The other end of the hall has the exact same switch.
If there is anybody in the Winston area that has testing equipment and could come by and fix this, I'd give them 20 bucks to cover their gas.
Help!
