and run a new wire from a convenient source nearby. think a outlet.
sometimes its easier and far less work to just run a new line
Even easier to call an electrician when you don't know how
a 3 way circuit works or which wire is which. It's possible
it can be done with what he already has there, without running
any new cable.
Do you know what he wants to do? Maybe I'm missing something.
He keeps saying that he wants to remove the switch and install a fixture.
The last thing he said was:
"I want to eliminate the light switch at the right end of this line and
insert a light fixture."
Do you know *where* he plans to "insert" the light fixture? I don't.
Do you know how he plans to *control* the new fixture? I don't.
He never said anything about *replacing* the switch or *reusing* the
switch. The words he used are "remove" and "eliminate" the switch. I'd
like to know how he plans to control the new light fixture, and from where,
before I offer any advice as to how to do it.
