Went to swap out this switch today and didn’t have the wiring I was expected. It controls one outlet only. Probably 50 years old, been working fine the 10 years I’ve lived here.

In addition to the red and black wires connected to the switch, the 2 white wires were coiled together but just floating around. I put the wire nut on.

Trying to put a Leviton Lever Edge switch on it. Any pointers? Voltage tester to find hot wire?

Got a laugh when I found this today, then was even happier since it’s a brand new ProV1 that was probably hit once.
