I'm looking for troubleshooting books, DVD's and or reference materials. Feedback and recommendations are appreciated

Totally agree.Methodical and document each step.
The documentation will both serve you directly when you get confused about what you tested AND make it easier to bring in somebody else (like this forum) for help in diagnosing later.Methodical and document each step.

Have a 'good' electrician wire a home. Have him 'just' place all the wires in the proper outlets (boxes).
Now with your wiggy 'tie' the 'boxes' in. Understand? No!
Try it on a rough first. Then on a finish. Then see if you can have all 4 ways and 3 ways pointing down and do all this with the power off!

What does all this have to do with troubleshooting?
How do you use a wiggy with the power off???
I don't have a older style wiggy to verify but i know a vol-con does have continuity tester (Vol=voltage & Con=continuity hence vol-con tester)
Does the older (original) wiggy have continuity tester built in?
How would you make connections for such an install, especially if you didn't install it, and have it right the first time it is energized? Seems to me you would use some of the skills you would use for finding a problem with something that stopped working, or never worked to begin with.What does all this have to do with troubleshooting?
I think the point was to use a continuity tester/ohmmeter. There are more voltage/continuity testers out there than just wiggy or volt-con, and many are called one of those two names even if they are not genuine wiggy or volt-con products.How do you use a wiggy with the power off???

Whether or not the light is on, silly basset.3). What possible difference would it make whether a 3 or 4-way switch pointed up or down?
My reply was based on a few things.
I don't even know which are switches or receptacles in some places because of where they are placed.:happyno:

Quite.Show some maturity and get back on topic please.
