Putting up an outside light with PIR but got no wiring diagram.
Got L.E.N coming thru wall to a little block from inside of the house.
Lamp has L.E.N going to bulb.
P.I.R then has got a Red ,White and a Black cable. Where do these go?
Cheers
Chip.

Not having done this for a few years I would hazard a guess that the L E N go to the pir as normal and the white from the PIR will be the switch line so should go to the positive of the light and a black neutral and earth will also need running to the light aswell.
ie
Red to Brown
Blue to Black
white to Light
Black to light
Green/Yellow to light casing.

Without seeinng it I'd hazard a guess that it is a live switch, eg it will allow you to override the pir function and have the light on permanently.
Ive now wiredthe 3 LEN qwires into the light which is woking OK. PIR not working tho which I still want to do.

did you read my first post?
you wire the PIR in to the LEN and then run a cable from the PIR to the light, connecting the white cable from the PIR to the red cable that goes to the light and the black from the PIR to the light and the earth from the PIR to the light.
DO NOT wire the red from the PIR to the light or the light will be permenatntly on and you will be putting a perm live to the switch side of the relay inside the PIR.
Ignore the LS terminal unless you want to use a manual overide switch aswell.
