A candelabra lamp fixture is the same as any other lamp fixture. Using a three way switching system can be followed by the related links.

Wire the two 3 way switches using 3 wire cable (red, black, white and bare). Then connect the first light to the others using two wire cable (black, white and bare) kind of like a daisy chain. The power goes to the first 3 way switch, then switch one goes to switch 2 using the 3 wire cable (even though it has 4 wires in there), then the second switch goes to one of the lights. Hope that helps.
The one wire carries the electricity or voltage. The lamp is grounded completing the circuit. You don't. The light switch is only half the circuit, a lamp has nothing to ground to so it can not work. If the wire to the switch is 3 wire, the bare wire would complete the circuit and power the plug, but it would not be up to code and could present a fire hazzard.
If the tri-light needs a new lamp holder try any reputable lighting house store. These types of retailers have all of the parts that you need to repair any lamp configurations. The new switch will have a rotary switch built into it just like the lamp had when it was new. There are only two wires to connect to it. Don't disconnect the old one until you have the new one and just put the wires on the same terminals as the they are wires on the old switch.
You should never switch the neutral wire. The neutral of the appliance should be connected directly to the neutral wire leading to the service panel neutral bar.

Yes if the wire is part of the brake lamp switch

The battery provides the current and the energy; the lamp consumes the energy when the current goes through it; the copper wire conducts the current; and the switch lets you close or open the circuit (so that current passes, or doesn't pass, through).
You should never switch the neutral wire. The neutral of the appliance should be connected directly to the neutral wire leading to the service panel neutral bar.
Determine where the wire going to the lamp exits your house. Make sure the power is off and then cut the cable leaving enough wire to be contained in a junction box. Put wire nuts on the white and black wire and install a blank cover plate over the box. If the lamp is controlled by a separate switch, just remove the switch, cap the wires and install a blank cover on the box. (combo covers can be bought if the switch is in a multiple device enclosure.) Now dig up the post and toss it.
to wire a lamp to be controlled from three places you need two three way switches and one four way switch. the two traveller wires that would normally run between the two three way switches must be connected to the terminals of the four way switch
It sounds like your switch is a three way switch. The wire that is on the different colour screw of the three screws will either be the "hot" wire or the wire to the load. The neutral might or might not be in the box that the switch is in depending on which end of the three way system you are at. See discuss question button below.No wires connected to a switch are neutral. A switch breaks the circuit of the hot wire. Black AND red are hot wires. White is used for neutral and is almost never connected to a switch.
If you are asking how to add a switch to a lamp (or other load device) cord, simply cut the line side of the cord and connect to the switch terminals. ----mikey
