Replacing Push Button Light Switches

In this video I show how to replace two 3way light switches. The original switches were the old knob and tube push-button type switches. The wiring was originally installed before the 1930s and, ideally, should be replaced. Knob and tube wiring is nearly 100 years old now. However, this client was not in a position to update the wiring so G3E was able to repair the switching problem with new switches. It is highly recommend that knob and tube wiring be replaced.To learn more about knob and tube wiring, click here.
