You can wire 4 lights with 2 switches by creating a "three-way" switch circuit. Connect the power source to the first switch, then run a 3-wire cable from that switch to the second switch. From the second switch, run a 2-wire cable to each of the 4 lights. This allows you to control the lights from either switch.

To wire an outside lamp with a four-wire cable (blue, brown, earth, and yellow), connect the blue wire to the neutral terminal, brown wire to the live terminal, yellow wire to the lamp's switch terminal, and earth wire to the earth terminal for safety purposes. Ensure to switch off the power before starting the wiring process and follow all local electrical codes and guidelines. If unsure, consult with a licensed electrician.
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

Three wire switch on the driver side of the transmission, just above the pan.Three wire switch on the driver side of the transmission, just above the pan.
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.
You cannot directly power an outlet from a one-wire light switch as it does not provide the necessary neutral wire for the outlet. You will need to run a new electrical wire that includes a hot, neutral, and ground wire from the switch to the outlet to provide power. It is recommended to consult a qualified electrician to ensure the proper installation and safety of your electrical system.
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
I would say it is more likely that they bumped the wire on the oil pressure sending unit of your car. I would try cleaning the contact between the sending unit and the wire before anything. if you cant do this a shop will do it for next to nothing. No way the lamp oil is rely and idiot lamp that tells something is wrong but not what. the lamp can burn out , loose a conncection or the oil sensor is not functioning The low oil pressure lamp is produced by the grounding of the pressure switch. The lamp on your dash has a positive voltage whenever the key is on. But the negative side is only when the switch is closed. ( switch on engine not running) oil pressure opens the switch! (turns the lamp off) So IF you do have good oil pressure? then you oil pressure switch has failed, or the the wire going th the switch is grounded. ( short to fram) not your ing. switch. So the answer is NO! To test this you will need a multimeter, check the restance of the switch with the engin running. should be open or LO on your meter. if that is true than check for voltage on the wire. 5 to 12 volts make model. ect. both tests are with swith disconected.
