I would like to know how to wire up two 3way switches and motion sensor combined. Sequence of operation is as follows; when you walk in room motion sensor detects motion turns the lights on but you can also control the same flouresant lights by using the 3way toggle swithes so you basically have two opptions to control these lights. I have twisted my hair out and it is frustrating because I am sure it is easy to install please reply asap thank you for your time james

I'm not sure I understand how you want this to work... if you walk in the room, you want the light to come on automatically, but then you want to be able to turn the light off manually, correct? If these were 3-ways wouldn't the light come on again as soon as it senses your movement again? Or do you want it to stay off indefinitely, until you flip the manual switch again? If so, you could simply wire the motion sensor switch in series with an on/off switch.

How to wire 3 way switches with motion sensors

[Stratmando]

You need to have the 3 way switching first, AND where the motion is, it needs to have a constant hot to power the motion, then have the output connect to the 3 way switchleg, the 3 way and the motion MUST be on same circuit.
