They left us enough switch blanks for a reason, didn't they?

I am in the same boat and trying to figure it out. So positive to green, blue wire to red 1 and then ground to black? 2nd red wire would just be for switch led light, whether you want it always on or with accessories.

Yes, I'm doing the same thing, where I tap into the same add-a-circuit line to power Red2 from other switches in order to illuminate them as well.

This is such an open ended question because you could wire a switch to anything. There are so many different kinds of switches too (round is just a shape). What is your accessory that you're trying to run?

It's the exact same

Anywhere on the car

Green in this case, is meant to be connected to your power source (battery). If it was connected to negative, the circuit would not be complete, and therefore the switch would not work. Hope that helps.

I don't. Did it come with a diagram at the back of the packaging?

Yes, if you don't want to illuminate the switch

👍👍

Check the orientation of the switch and compare it to the diagram I have. In my video, I showed a second wiring harness with different colors, but they correspond to the same thing as the other harness.

Done!

Yes, exactly

@@LiL13izzy7 thanks, i plan to use it for backup sensors but wanting to use the in/out with the ground and the power will be based on the reverse lights

Try to flip the prongs the other way and plug it in again. I did a straight USB port install here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5XObhMQ0wCo.html

@@LiL13izzy7 I tried that. Wires are all good, in-line fuse and fuses are good. I tested them on the battery with the usb charger all the way up to the add a fuse tap. Possible that my add a fuse tap is bad??

Regardless of the color of the wires, the orientation should match up to the same diagram (the harness should be interchangeable with the switches I believe). Anyway, I think the purpose of the switch is to be able to control your light bar independently of your headlights (otherwise, why have the switch in the first place?) As far as the switch light illuminating with the others at night, I used an add-a-circuit to connect Red 2 (or whatever color line is in that 3rd position on your switch harness), to the tail circuit. When I turn the headlights on and off, the switch illuminates with the console switches. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hGHI3vgkV8w.html

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SbXkLwCS53o.html maybe this will help. Without knowing how you wired everything, it sounds to me like you might have connected red 2 to the battery as well.

Maybe a loose part.

@@LiL13izzy7 everything is connected securely.

@@LiL13izzy7 no I went back with a test light and the red wire that goes from the relay to the lights has no current. Keys on or when switch is pressed. Nothing. So I ordered a better harness

New harness did the trick. I my only issue now is after following the installation instructions, the light on my switch stays on even when the car is off. I feel like it will end up killing my battery in time. I tried tapping into a fuse that only turns on when the car is on but I had no lights. Only way I can get them to work is by tapping into a fuse that is hot at all times. I tapped into my power windows fuse. They don’t work when the car is off, but there is a current obviously when it’s off because the fog lights will turn on and the switch has power. Any idea how to remedy this? Or as long as I just don’t forget to turn them off, will this not cause much of a power draw?

​@surslaughter3524 I have the same problem. Light on switch on all the time any way you got around this ?
