Hi all
I've been changing the halogen downlighters in my house to LED's. I have three rooms that use dimmers, two of them have two switches each to control the lights, all rocker type dimmer switches. I've had no issue replacing the dimmer modules in the rooms with multiple switches as they are straight disconnect old and reconnect new module (Shuttle mini-T-LED), all working. The issue I have now is the last room with a single rocker switch as the module has only three wires as opposed to the 4 on the LED dimmer module (Live, load, two to switch). I've attached an image of the dimmer module, it has two thick wires and one thin wire. Quite puzzling for me and I can seem to find anything on the module itself, even on Google. Can anyone advise how this module works and how to wire in the new 4 wire module?

- TL;DR
- How to wire a new LED dimmer module with 4 wires total to replace a halogen dimmer module with only 3 wires.
Bell press or rocker dimmer switch, Shuttle mini-T-LED dimmer module.
