I agree Terry. I wish I could express it more succinctly. I drew up a
schematic and have attached it here as a .jpg file. This picture is
worth at least a few hundred words..... Hope it helps the original
poster and that he / she can download it.

When connecting "one switch and one light together" per the
instructions below, you actually need to connect the green switch's
unused terminal to the unused terminal on each of the 3 green
lights, then connect the yellow switch's unused terminal to the
unused terminal on each of the 2 yellow lights, and finally the
last switch, red's unused terminal, to the unused terminal on each
of each of 2 red lights.

Boy that sounds awfully complicated.


Umm, don't you want a separate switch for EACH light? Your schematic turns
them all on at once.
