@OliWer ok, 2 more steps.

ok, we are executing electron rebuild from the module folderm, it can’t find the important info about electron in the base folder… SO

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install electron-rebuild --save

then cd to the module folder again and then

~/MagicMirror/node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

@karsten13 yeh, he just said he wasn’t gonna fix his tool…

@sdetweil AFAIS someone got it running https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/16074/electron-rebuild-and-magicmirror-v2-18-and-more/32?page=4# but don’t know if it works

@karsten13 magicmirror-rebuild does not work for this module…and won’t be fixed
(as the module is ‘archived’)

@sdetweil

yes, MMM-PIR-Sensor is deprecated so its better to use another module which is still maintained.

I got MMM-PIR-Sensor installed with this workaround:

Change dependencies section in package.json to

  "dependencies": {
    "onoff": "latest",
    "magicmirror-rebuild": "latest"
  }

Run npm install which will fail.

Edit node_modules/epoll/binding.gyp and insert the following in line 2 (after the first {):

  "variables": {
    "openssl_fips" : "0"
  },

Run npm install again.

Thanks for your help =)
I was not able to get MMM-PIR-Sensor running, even with your steps listed above. As it is deprecated I did what @karsten13 suggested and used another PIR (MMM-PIR). It had the same issue first, but using magicmirror-rebuild from https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/16074/electron-rebuild-and-magicmirror-v2-18-and-more?page=1 I was able to got the PIR working again.
So again: Thanks for trying to help and your suggestions!
