Yes you can if you want a toggle switch to control your LED Light Strip The light strip should be 2 wires 1~ Power 1~ Ground You can wire the Ground wire to the chassis or to the nearest harness 10mm ground just put a wire end or an eyelet on the end of your ground wire. The Toggle Switch will have 3 Terminals if it's similar to my toggle switches 1~Power (Hooked Up to 12V Source) 1~Signal (Hooked to Power Wire of Component you want to power) Ex. Your LED Light Strip 1~Ground (Ground to Chassis or Nearest Harness Ground)
I forgot to mention, also a "Inline fuse" should be added in-between the toggle switch and the 12v power. If the 12v power isn't already controlled/assisted by a fuse.
Yes it should, The Switches should be the same just a different brand. They should have Power, Signal and Ground and probably need rewired also. (If you want a "Master Main Power" to kill everything in one push) The base wiring setup I believe they come wired as is for street cars. Example, so you can be parked and have your Accessories wired to a switch alone. Listen to music without anything else on. Everything wired to their own switch and not all killed by a "master main power switch" Example, key turns 1st Key Click - Acc (Switch 1) 2nd Key Click - Ignition 1 (Switch 2) 3rd Key Click - Ignition 2 (Switch 3) That is to my knowledge and understanding on how the switch panels get pre-wired and shipped
So you don’t need fuse or anything like that just wire it just like you did ? I just have fuel pump , push starter, and ignition switch everything else will stay oem -
Yes that's correct, I have had others do the same, one example is on a circuit Integra. To my knowledge, all we are doing is changing the switch style, the fuses and such stay the same if kept like oem
I should mention, depending on the setup and person. If you are just wanting a Push to Start, a company called "JDI" - Jordan Distributors Inc. offers a Plug and Play Push Start as well as other things I am unsure of other brands but the switch panels seemed to come wired for street use, so you can do 3 switches for different "Key Clicks" EXAMPLE: 1st switch - Accessories 2nd switch - Ignition 1 3rd switch - Ignition 2 So if you wanted to listen to the radio, you didn't have power to everything else too. If I can recall, I showed that I rewired my panel so I have a "Main Power Switch" to kill everything else is and when needed.
I am unsure what all you are missing, feel to DM me on Instagram also. You can probably find the oem wiring on ebay, if you want to go without, you can probably make a wiring setup itself with a in line fuse or different fusebox with and relays, deutsch connectors. There are a few routes you can take.
Another Example. If you just have the toggle switches with no wiring or have just a switch from a auto parts store. You can use your own wires and wire ends to mirror how my switch is wired, the switches have different terminals. POWER, SIGNAL and GROUND. once you confirm which terminals are what, you can wire them in as so. You can Purchase Relays and In line fuses from Amazon if needed.
thanks for the video man. wacked a curb and bent my trailing arm, going to be hitting a junk yard soon to try and grab a good condition one and needed to know what tools to bring to get this off.
Whats up, I ran the signal wires under the dash similar to the OEM harness, its still just mocked up until I get everything wired in, then I'll go back and clean it up
I cleaned the bottom with multiple things, depending on how bad it is, concentrated degreaser might be best. I used... Simple Green, Mean Green, Purple Power and Scrub pads. I took alot of time scrubbing. Probably 2 weeks after I got off work. I believe I vlogged some of it also
