Hi Guys...
I have a normal 20A toggle switch for my air conditioner , similar to those water heater toggle switch...
What bothers me is that the Indicator lights is not perfectly working as it should...

When the toggle is switch on - Indicator light lit up...and aircond can be switched on...(no problem here)
but when the toggle is switch off - indicator light is STILL lit up, but slightly dimmed.... but aircon is OFF...which is also correct....

Althouh the toggle switch seems to be working as it should, but why does the neon indicator doesnt fully switch off when i switch the toggle to OFF position...

i thought it was a broken indicator lite, so i bought a new one.. but still, the problem exist...

what could it be? if i want to try and switch the wires behind, would that help?
what are the things that i need to look for or avoid?

any help/comment is much appreciated... cos it really bothers me now that it is not working perfectly like the rest of my aircond toggle switch.. biggrin.gif
