Replaced an outside mains pir light which works, but none of the other lights work, except the one it runs off. I took the wiring off the circuit, essentially back to how it was before, but I still have no lights indoors. When I switch downlights on the flicker! Any help would be fantastic please.
 
Sounds like you havent reconnected the cable the feeds the rest of the circuit... or connected it to the wrong place.

Did you connect the pir light to a jointbox with a lot of other cables? Can we get a photo of the connections?

The feeder is from the garage light, which is fluorescent tube, I'd already wired it for the previous pir light, and everything worked fine. Like most led o/s lights I've had, they don't last. So just bought the new one, like for like. New light works perfectly, but none of the d/s lights? I'm perplexed as I haven't touched the wiring in the garage light. I'd take a pic but visibly it's got so many wires going through it, it's a mess.
 
clearly a wiring or connection issue, lets see a picture of your connections
