I want to install 2 light/wireless speaker fixtures on the side of my garage with the power coming from an existing switch inside the garage for an indoor light, could you please supply a wiring diagram that would enable me to do that?

So, if I read this right, you will be removing 1 light and replacing with 2? If so, you can use 2 pieces of 14/2 Romex. In the switch box, tie all the whites, all the grounds, pigtail 2 blacks to 1 wire which will be on the switch side. So in the box you should have 3 whites, 3 grounds, 1 hot black and 2 switched black. You need to use the pigtail so you only have 1 wire under the switched screw. Is this what you are thinking about?

Actually I am installing 2 wireless speakers with lights on the outside of a garage, there is no existing fixtures at all, I need to install it all. There is a switch inside that controls a single light fixture on the inside garage wall and I would like to tie into that switch for my feed. The speakers each have their own on/off switches so I don't really need this circuit switched but perhaps it would be a good idea? Look forward to hearing back and thanks for what you gave me so far.

Ok, now we are on the same path. Assuming the switch is a single feed and not a switchloop, you should find a hot black to the switch and then a switched hot for the existing light. Since it is a light controlled switch, you should also have a white and a ground. So at this point, you have 2 choices, follow my original wiring suggestion but you will pigtail off the in hot and then run your 14/2's out to 2 wall mounted boxes, ceiling boxes will work. You can also use a regular wall box. The only problem with this is that the wires will always be hot. So, your next choice would be to remove the existing wall box and replace it with a 2 gang box or just add another wall box. I'd use another single box since you can mount it wherever you want. Tie your incoming hot, white and ground to a piece of 14/2, run to the second box, switch the hot black, pigtail the hot switched lead to the new wires, basically making the old box a junction box, tie all the whites, and grounds and you should be ready to go. You would also pigtail another hot to the existing light. Hope this works for you. Brian

Thanks so much for your help Brian, much appreciated!!

Ok Brian I'm sorry, but I have now found a box with 14/2 running to it from a small circuit breaker panel in the garage and this box is not in use. So if I were to install my switch there to control only the 2 light/speaker fixtures that I am installing, what type of switch would I use? To make sure I got this right now, I would have a hot black from the feed to one brass screw on the switch, a black on the other brass screw to the first light. At that first light I tie 3 blacks together, one from the switch, one from the first light and one from the second light. I would then tie in a white from the feed to the silver screw on the switch and then from the other sliver screw on the switch to the white on the first and second fixture, all grounds to ground of course. Is this correct? Thanks again... Tom

Not quite, you never switch the neutral. If you have a switch with 4 terminals, it's the wrong switch. You just need a single pole switch. Hot goes to switch, either terminal, and then black to the first light. Tie that black to the other light black. You should have 3 blacks at the first light, 1 at the second. Incoming white to first light, tied to second and then grounds the same. 3 whites and 3 grounds at the first, 1 at the second. You will need a piece of romex to go from the switch to the first light and another piece to go from the first light to the second. Get back to me if you need further clarification. I have never tried to do a diagram in "paint" but may try.

Piece of cake Brian

Ok got it thanks so much Brian the diagram is a big help.

Great Job, Brian
