Hey guys, I need some help replacing a motion detector switch. It's a manual on-auto off switch from leviton. I want to replace it with an auto on-auto off switch from cooper.
The existing switch has 5 wires connected to it. 1 red, 1 white, 2 black and 1 ground and it controls 3 pendents light in my kitchen. I'm not sure what wires are going in/out of the switch from the light/panel. The replacement switch only has 3 wires, 2 black and a ground.
The existing motion switch is mounted beside 2 separate 3 way switches that control other lights in the kitchen.
I'm totally confused how to connect the wires. Any help? The Pendent lights are only controlled by the motion switch.
Thanks!
