  • Gain access with caution! To prevent damage to the plastic outer switch plunger you will need 2 small screwdrivers. Prise the yellow switch housing away from the grey outer framework to free the locating pins which lock the two together. This is the tricky part, once one side has been seperated, the second side is easier but do this very cautiously or you will crack the plastic. Once the switch housing is free, unscrew the screw holding the electrical cord in place and work the assembly up and away from the mounting. This will allow access to the switch - ** Make double sure the plug is disconnected from the wall!!! Remove the switch by using a screwdriver to pry the switch up and out of its mounting, disconnect the power leads from the switch (they should be both brown). Do not split the blue wires which are fixed together. Connect the new switch to the brown wires removed and reassemble. By Anonymous - London - 12 November 2012
