        Hey, thanks for advising us how to install the modules, but I´m still struggling to find a solution for me even after updating nodejs and npm to the latest builts…
        Similar error with corrected package.json.

        Unable to find electron-prebuilt's version number, either install it or specify an explicit version
        

        I even tried the npm rebuild @Mar suggested. My last attempt to get this working was updating electron to its newest version but this didn´t help either.
        Is there anything I could further try to install this module correctly?

          @Jay I forgot what I did here to fix this issue. But to be honest after I got this working it still wasnt perfect. I ended going the route of a script on startup that controls the PIR sensor and its been perfect since and simple.

              @fox This PR should have fixed the issue (it is merged into the master).

              Are you running MagicMirror 2.1.0? And is your PIR-Module up-to-date? Try updating both (see this and do it in both directories) to the newest version.

                I deleted PIR Sensor completely. And made a new installation of this module and it installed without Problems. looks good from now

                    Hi, i tried to install the module MMM-PIR-Sensor. I did it like its explained here:

                    https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor

                    After installing the module i opened the config.js file an added:

                    {
                    			module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
                    			config: {
                    				sensorPIN: 23,
                                                    powerSaving: true,
                                                    relayPIN: none,
                                                    relayOnState: 1,
                    			}
                    		},
                    

                    The way i connected the sensor is shown in the following picture:

                    alt text

                    But when i want to start the magic mirror it says that i have to add a correct config.js file.
                    What did i wrong? Please help me guys ;)

                      Did you change the name of the config File from “config.js.sample” to “config.js”?

                        @Jay yes i did. The basic modules like clock or weather are running but when i add the module for the PIR sensor in the config.js file i cant start the magic mirror
