I'm getting rid of this old hideous lightswitch with a nicer looking paddle switch. It only goes to one light.
White at the top right and bottom right, red at the bottom left, black at the top left.
I'm assuming I should wire nut the two whites together in the back of the box, and then with the new switch put black on gold and red on silver? Is that right or do I need a different kind of lightswitch for this with more terminals?
