I have a very annoying light switch set up in a hallway where there are wall switches at both ends and both have to be on for the lights to go on. Typically they both get set to "off", I walk in to hall, and have to switch them both back on.
I'd like to remove one of the switches and replace with a blanking plate - can I just connect the wires behind the switch with a terminal block or will it burn my house down & kill me to death? thx
You have two way switching and it sounds like wires have been swapped over. If you have a multimeter or a non-contact test pen it's easy to figure out what needs to go where.
