Good afternoon,

Was aiming to replace a 2 gang dimmer switch as have switched to LEDs and it now buzzes and lights flicker a bit. Old dimmer is 40w-> so the LEDs are only maybe 15-20W per gang.

Anyway, thought it should be a nice easy swap out, however taken old dimmer off and wasn't quite what I was expecting. I have doodled on the wires as they are currently ;



Aiming to replace with a Varilight set that has the same labels as below (C/L1/L2)



So new switch as more ports, can anyone help as to how to connect in the same way? Assuming I perhaps need to do red into C on bith, Link L1 (left) to L1 (right) and black from L2 (left) but I'm not 100% on my guess.

Any advice will be gratefully recieved :)
 
Cheers for the help all, had another go and did like for like, works a treat! No more buzzing light switch and flickering led!
