That’s going to be my next step,dead testing. Just puzzled as to why I detect both wires at switch as live when not connected to switch

There is likely to be a broken neutral somewhere in the circuit.
So obviously with any load connected in the circuit the neutral conductor downstream of the break will be at line voltage as it is connected to the line conductor via the load.

This is assuming you have confirmed this is not a phantom voltage you have measured?
