So I scored a grip of switches and harnesses from some troopers in the yards today. I got all the defroster and cruise control switches I could get my hands on. My goal is to replace all my toggles with factory push buttons, similar to the Boss's look in his foglight write up, and I will use a magic eraser to remove the white label and make my own for the various things I wire up. I want to run one switch for my accessories, (CB, digital rear view, and extra dc outlets) on one switch, fogs on another, roof lights/bumper lights on another, perhaps another to turn off my amp and so on.
Here is what I got from the thread. If I am reading this correctly, I need to run +12v to the left pin and ground to the two top right pins. That would mean the second from the left is my throw for the switch? (output for non-electrician types:) ) What lead needs to go to the bottom right pin? Can I just put a jumper from the throw pin to that one? I assume that is the indicating light on the switch itself? I only want it on if the switch is on. I know that some folks are heading out for Moab, so I may not get a response, but when I finish the project, I will post up some pics and whatnot for the final setup.
