Hi All,

I recently purchased a Varilight 3 gang 2 way 10A rocker switch (LINK), but it looks like the middle switch is inverted. This means that the switches are in different positions when off. I looked in to it & it seems that it's because the COM input layout is LIKE THIS, where the COM input is on top for switch 2 & at the bottom for switches 1 & 3. Is there any workaround for this so that all the switches will be in the same position when they are on & off?

I don't want to get new switches as I need to stick with this style.

Thanks,:)

I guess the middle switch is the only one for the light it is controlling?

If so, you should only have one wire in the L1 (or L2) terminal for that switch. If so, move the wire from L1 to L2, or vice versa. That will do it. POWER OFF before doing the wiring!@.

If you are still stuck, post a pic of the ACTUAL wiring. Thanks.
 
Thanks TTC. Yes the middle switch is the only one for the light that it is controlling.

So it's just a question of moving the one wire in L1 to L2 for the middle switch? That simple?

I'll give it a shot later this week & revert back. Thank you for coming back to me so promptly.
