Default Adding a light fixture from an existing switch ?

You can do it, but not the way the wires are connected presently. That 3
wire cable probably goes to the other three way switch. Open the other
switch box, and see if you have a feed in that box. (Hot and Neutral) If you
do, disconnect the three wires going to the upstairs switch in the box and
reconnect just a hot, neutral, and ground going to the upstairs, and replace
the downstairs switch with a single pole



You took my words right off of my fingertips. G
