The photograph shows a clip on the right hand side. Probably one on the other side as well (away from the lens). the box should come apart.

Hi, the center section does pull out, but still no obvious signs of how to release/lock the wires in place.

Tony, here's a youtube vid that should help.

Finally found something, seems the wires should just push in and lock or pull firmly to pull out. but I cannot seem to be able to get the wire to lock in. Not exactly the same but more or less the same.

Thank you Donnie, you posted while I was posting, think yours is a better video. May have to buy a new switch if I cannot get the wire to clip in securely.

If it wont clip in securely I'd simply add a bit of solder to the stripped wire to increase both the solidity of the wire and increase the thickness so the switch will grip it better.
