I installed the motion sensor on a 3way switch. Connected the red lead to the common and the yellow w/red strip lead to a traveler and the black lead to the other traveler. No matter how i switch the travelers i cant get the other regular 3way to be able to turn on and off the light. I added a jumper from the common to a traveler at the normal 3way but it still cannot turn the light on or off. If i switch the travelers at the motion sensor then the other 3way can turn the light off but then the motion sensor switch wont turn on. How do i wire this so the other 3way can still be used to turn the light on and off and always have the motion sensor switch work.

Three way Switch installation; One cable has two wires plus a bare copper grounding wire, The other cable has three wires plus a ground.
1. Connect the black wire from the two-wire cable to the dark common screw terminal. 2. Connect the red and black wires from the three-wire cable to the traveler screw terminals. 3. Join the white neutral wires together with a wire connector and pigtail the grounding wires to the grounded metal box. 4. When the switch lies at the end of the circuit one cable enters the box. 5. The cable has a black wire, red wire, and white wire, plus a bare copper grounding wire. 6. Connect the black wire to the dark common screw terminal. 7. Connect the white and red wires to the two traveler screw terminals and the bare copper grounding wire to the grounded metal box.
I hope this help.

3-way installation shows two motion sensor switches.
Instructions do not show 1 motion sensor and 1 ordinary 3-way switch.

Also note the maximum load rating is 500Watt

In addition to the black, red, green, and yellow/red wires on the switch, there should also be a white wire or terminal marked WH. The black wire on the switch connects to the incoming black wire (line in or hot) inside the switch box. The red wire on the switch connects to the outgoing black wire (to the load) inside the switch box. The green connects to the bare wires inside the switch box. The yellow/red is not used in a single pole application such as yours. The two white wires inside the switch box are twisted together and _also_ connected to the WH terminal (or white wire) on the switch.

The motion light comes from the store with a neutral (white) hot (black) wires. If there are multiple light bulb sockets on the motion light, the black wires will be connected together and the white wires will be connected together. There will be a motion sensor that has a red, white and black wire. The red wire is connected to the black wires from the bulb sockets. The remaining white and black wire from the sensor switch are connected to the line power from the panel. you must remember that all white wires from the entire project are to be connected together.

Most motion lights feed the line power from an independent switch that connects the power to the motion light fixture. Remember never to connect the white conductors to any red or black wires, as this will create a ground and you will continue to trip your circuit.

I hope this has been helpful.

If you are replacing a three way switch with a three way switch, you should only use the wires that were connected to the old switch. (Unfortunately the color coding of these wires is not universal.) Assuming you have only 2 switches, that means you only need to connect 3 wires to the switch (in addition to the ground). One wire (to be connected alone on either side of the top or bottom of the switch) either comes from the electric panel or goes to the light fixture. The other two wires (both at the top or bottom of the switch) are the "travelers" and go directly to the other switch. You can examine the other switch (the one you aren't working on) to confirm which two wires are your travelers. I hope this helps. Good luck!

The yellow/black wire is for the foot brake and the yellow/blue is for the parking break. These wires need to be hooked up in line with the pinch connectors to the correct wire. The yellow/black wire needs to hook up to the wire to the foot break lead wire before the switch and the yellow/blue needs to hook up to the lead wire before the parking brake switch. This is a sefty feature to deactivate the video display because it is illegal to have video in the view of the driver while the vehicle is moving. These wires are used to tell if the car is stopped.

a three way dimmer has three wires on it. two are red one is black. the black is the common just like the odd colored screw on a standard three way switch. the two red wires go to the "travelers" to the other three way switch. standard wiring practices: hot goes to the odd screw, travelrs go to the other three way switch. at the remote the load comes off the other odd screw.

hi there the wirings colour codes for nz are as follows

OLD WIRING CODE

Green = Earth
Black = Neutral
Red = Phase Or Live

NEW WIRING CODE

Green/Yellow = Earth
Blue = Neutral
Brown = Phase or Live

============DANGER 230VOLT ===============

Electricity can kill.
You should use an Electrical contractor for this repair job,
Caution always turn off power first before touching any wiring,

The Live wires always carry power,from one point to another,
the black neutral is your return path from the live phase wire
the green wire is always the ground ,

In this example

the sensor will have four wires as follows

Green = Earth Wire
Black = Neutral
Brown = Phase (incoming supply) 24 hrs
Red = Phase Load (outgoing supply) from sensor to lights triggered

Notice there are to phases in the circuit.Brown and Red
Always treat them as LIVE or Active Power.

Brown will normally be the Live incoming power and
Red will be the load side of the sensor,

Check the brochure supplied by manufactuers or their website to confirm the wiring order is correct before commencing any installs or repairs,

Always Safety first.
Safe a live today and you'll remembered forever.

There are 2 3way switches. Usually one end has a wire going to the light, and the other end 3 way switch has the always on power coming in. Between the two switches are 2-wire travellers.

On the actual 3way switches;
2 screws are the same color and the 2-wire travellers go on these. The other screw is a different color -usually black. This screw gets the power on one end, and the switch leg to the light at the other end.

Leave a short jumper wire between the tamper terminals.
Connect red to +12v and black to -12v on the Motion Detector.
Connect red to Terminal-5 and black to Terminal-4 on the Vista-15P

Connect Green & Yellow to the alarm terminals on the Motion Detector,
Connect Green & Yellow to the desired zone on the vista panel, be
sure to add in your EOL 2K resistor (if using them) in series along
either the Green or Yellow, preferably at the motion, but can be in the
panel box if it's not a "high security risk" install (most residential
systems have them in the box, although any security professional
will say it's not "proper" but go ahead and check other boxes, you'll see).
I think BRINKS is the only one to do the true "end of line" procedure,
but it's a royal pain in the @$$ if you ever change panel types, you have
to pull every wired sensor out just to change the resistors, and if it's a
prewire (put in when the house was built) it's nearly impossible without
rendering the wire run useless unless there's a lot of slack on the line.

Check your vista installers manual for the rest! Good luck!
