Two Bathroom light switches.

Thread Starter 
One bathroom switch when turned on will turn on for just a blink, then wiggle and the lights will come on.
The other bathroom (a dimmer switch) works at various levels at various heights it is turned on?
Any help would be appreciated.

Coach, welcome to AVSforum. I see that this is your first post. The nature of your question may indicate a lack of understanding and skills to do your own electrical repairs. If you are unsure you best call in an electrician.

Tim that is a possibility and this would be an opportunity to replace it with a more secure device. I had a back-stabbed outlet that almost burned down my house. When a circuit failed I found the failed connections on the back of an outlet that was completely charred.
