I'm renovating a 1960's holiday home and just want to replace an old lighting switch which has 2 switches, one for the ceiling light and one for the wall lights. Thought it would be simple but the new modern replacement switch doesn't match the old switch connections so guidance sought please!
New switch has 2 sets of connectors, each marked L1, L2 & Com.
Old switch has 4 connected wires: on the top row - blue & black to one terminal, red to another then on the lower row, one red into one terminal with a red loop to another terminal. (See photo)
Help! Which wires to where on the new switch? Any advice gratefully received thanks!
