My ceiling light in my bedroom conked out this morning, I grabbed a VOM and removed the cover from the wall switch to see if it was working, Unfortunately instead of the four connections I was expecting there were only two, I assume the hot line in and out. Without access to the neutral I can't use the voltmeter to see if the switch is working, I rashly assume the neutrals are connected together on the back of the switch. Is there any way I can check this switch without removing it?
If I decide to remove it how can I find the correct power breaker to turn off since the light it feeds doesn't work. I can't just flip breakers until the light goes off.
Suggestions - besides call an electrictian and spend a bunch of my sparse money?
TIA
