Mend Ceiling Wiring Switch

2 way light pull cord?

Im changing my light cord pull in bedroom. There is also a light switch so I think im right in saying its a 2 way set up?
Out of the ceiling I have 1 cable with a black and red wire, and 1 cable with a red yellow and blue wire.
On the pull cord I have 1 x com, 1 x L1 and 1 x L2.
Please could you advice how to wire this up.
Thanks

The colours of the wires at the pull cord should mimic the ones at the other switch, e.g. if you have yellow at common on the switch, do the same at the pullcord.

The black and red wires coming out of the separate cable should usually go into L1 and L2.
