my living room was originally configured for 2 way operation. Sometime (before i moved in) one of the switches was changed to a dimmer. I'd like to move back to 2 way switches. Currently Dimmer works okay - but the other switch has no operation (dimmer works whether this second switch is in either position.
undoing second switch over the weekend, i was surprised to find only 2 connections (basic single gang throw switch), i was expecting to see three ( two wires coming from dimmer, one to light/switch). More worryingly both wires to this switch were live ! - does this indicate a faulty switch or some inventive wiring ?
