Are the wires "backstabbed" on the switch? Best to place the wires on

backstabbed.

I'll have to check when I get home.. backstabbed is not a preferred method?

No. If so, put the wires on the screws.

To release back stabbed wire, sometimes have to
push in the slot with a tiny screw driver. Or in
the case of my kitchen's toaster socket, smash
the hell out of the socket and break it off.
