This is a two-part query.
My kitchen has 2 ceiling lights and the adjacent utility room has one.
These are controlled by a single switch at the hall end of the kitchen ( which switches on both kitchen ceiling lights) , a double switch at the other end of the kitchen ( one switch for kitchen, the other for the utility) and a single switch at the exit door from the utility room ( which controls only the utility room light).
1. The switches are wired incorrectly as, depending on the configuration of the utility room switch and the kitchen double switch, the kitchen single switch either operates the ceiling lights correctly or it does nothing!
I'd like to correct this but if it is complicated then I guess I'll leave well alone since we've learned to live with it.
2. I'd like to replace the quirky single switch in the kitchen with a dimmer switch. Is it necessary to solve the above problem first or would it be possible to make a replacement , albeit with the same quirkiness as the existing switch.
Advice please.
