I am the new(ish) owner of a home where the top switch of a double light switch must be on for the bottom to work. This is problematic because they are for outdoor floodlights and we need one to always be on but not the others... and that one is of course the one "dependent" on the other switch controlled light.
the switch that controls both lights (or the one that must be on for the other to work) is the top switch. Please help!
See picture, black wire goes down to bottom switch on other side.
