I think, researching this, I need to go with the first thing I thought,
but let someone tell me different.
( I do, by the way, have more than a working knowledge of electronics.
I have had high school and 1 year of college electronics, and 15 years
of helping my dad wire. I just have not dealt with jumping lights yet.
I have successfuly jumped outlets......Regardless of who's playing
tonight..lol)
I don't think the extra white needs to be put into the circuit at all.
(I only put it there on adivice from someone else.) I think I should
have the primary hot (black screw on the 2 way) jumped to the hot on
the single switch. The other black (or hot, from the gold screw) needs
to go to the (normaly) white screw on the single switch. ( both, via a
jumper wire from the back holes on the 2 way to the screws on the
single switch.) The white from the porch light should go directly to
the extra white, via a screw cap. Grounding remains as is.... porch to
outside base, and 2 way to screw. This is what made sense to me
originally, but I let someone talk me into the non working mess I have.
I just wanted to know if it seems to make sense to anyone else, before
I "get dangerous". ( I can always undo what I have done...I'm not
going to fry the place hooking up a porch light..get real)
