Well maybe he'll take it the right way, - I didn't leave much room lol. But,-if the OP truly wants her fixed, he has to eliminate a few easy "no cost" possibilities right off if he wants good "no cost" advice to follow. Seems like he could at least validate the neutral switch question, as he posted , - it's been asked before.

BTW- I only have one side and it's all good,- with enough beer
