Okay, I have what I think is a strange occurrence, and I'll do my best to explain.
I'm trying to jump power from one of my 3-way switches that turns on my kitchen lights to another switch that will control my under the cabinet lights. Since I believe the switch I'm trying to get power to is not the one that is directly getting power from a power source, but rather is getting the power from the traveler (red) wire. So, what I did was pigtail the power from the traveler to the switch that runs the under the cabinet lights. I have yet to wire the undercabinet lights, but that switch seems to be wired fine. (There is one hot that is always hot, and the blacking going to the lights [or what will eventually be lights] is live when I flip the switch.)
Now the strange occurrence is my 3-way switches. The one I did not jump the power to has to be up for the other switch to work. If it is down, the one I jumped power to does not work. Part of me thinks it's because I have not wired the cabinet lights yet. Could that be what is causing this strange occurrence? (I'm asking now before I climb up into the attic to try this, in case there is something I'm missing.)
