Moved from Online feedback forum to HWC -- probably the most apt forum (hopefully).

Since this is a replacement, you should wire in the same way as the original.

This means you need to look at the labels on the connectors on the original i.e. COM, L1, L2 and L3 etc and wire the corresponding connectors on the replacement.

Before that, you need to switch off the power at the circuit-breaker and test for live current with a voltage tester.

If the above is Greek to you, then please engage a qualified electrician.

U replace right? Before removing... Understand it and mark the wires

Then just transfer over

Thank you very much Sir. The yellow wire dropped off when I open up the old switch, and I try to connect it and now it becomes like, when i wanna on the toilet light, i have to on the middle switch follow by the toilet switch then only the toilet light will be on.
