One wire is the hot off the plug, one is the hot to one socket, and the third wire is the hot for the second socket. You'll have to check the switch for the exact color code / which wire is which (I don't know if there is a standard). You can test it easily with a multimeter as well.
There should be only (2) screws in a 3-way lamp socket. The (hot) black wire goes on the dark screw (brass), and the (neutral) white wire on the light colored screw (silver). Sometimes one wire has printing on it, that one is the (hot) black, and the other one with ridges along it's sides is the (neutral) white. Make sure you re-install the cardboard sleeve in the lamp switch. Another thing you may notice is the prongs on the plug at the end of the cord has one prong that is wider than the other, the wider one is the (neutral) white. You can use a regular (non 3-way) bulb in the lamp. It will then take 2 clicks to turn it on, and 2 clicks to turn it off.

By changeover switch, if you mean forward reverse switch, the correct electrical terminology you should be searching is, wiring of an electrical drum switch.
If you are referring to a switched UK-style socket outlet fitted with a led, or a wall switch fitted with a led, then the led merely indicates that the socket outlet switch or wall switch is in the 'on' position.
If you socket is the same as the one I am trying to replace then you only use 2 wires. 1 black, 1 white (power coming in) and the the night light is attached with the white and the other wire comes from one of the terminals from the socket. The switch is similar to the 3-way switch, 1 for the light in the socket, 1 for the night light..and 1 turns both on. No, mine is different. I have to use four wires. I took mine to the local hardware store where a friend showed me how to rewire it. I then went home and rewired the other one sucessfully. Thanks for the info.
A properly installed switch for a wall socket will only interupt the 'hot' leg. The earth (or ground) and the neutral will remain connected.

Type your answer here... Why are you wanting to rewire the brake lights?
You switch the carborator with the ac and then rewire the inside to the dashboard
It enables you to switch off the load from the socket, rather than have to pull the plug out of the socket.
A rotary switch is a switch operated by rotation. These are often chosen when more than 2 positions are needed, such as a three-speed fan or a CB radiowith multiple frequencies of reception or "channels".
First unplug the wire harness from the switch. Using the correct size socket (1" if I remember correctly) remove the switch counterclockwise from the transmission. Install the new one in reverse order.
No This is not easy. It is easier to replace the signal light switch assembly
The steering wheel cannot be bypassed to rewire turn signals in a 1989 Chevy Corsica. The switch for the wires is in the steering column. If the steering wheel were bypassed, the wires would not be connected to the switch.
chiltons manual has wiring diagrams for that

Rotary switches can be researched by visiting your local DIY store or searching the internet. They are switched that are operated by rotation. A common example of a rotary switch is a channel selector on an old fashioned radio.
turn the switch on the socket on :-D
