Light Switch Repair and Replacement
Repairing or Replacing Faulty Light Switches
A faulty light switch can indicate wiring deterioration, arcing, or a loose circuit connection. MAD Energy NW provides professional electrical services in Auburn that homeowners can rely on to diagnose, repair, or replace faulty switches safely and efficiently.
Common Signs of Faulty Switches
Switches that no longer operate properly can cause flickering lights, intermittent power, or even pose electrical risks. Typical signs that a switch needs attention include the following:
- Lights flicker or fail to respond when toggled.
- A faint buzzing or popping sound comes from the switch.
- The switch feels warm to the touch.
- Cracks or damage appear on the switch plate.
- The toggle feels loose or unsteady.
If any of these issues occur, the problem may involve the internal contacts or wiring behind the switch.
