Holty Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 for those of you who have the socal diesel bracket with the two switches, how do you wire them? each switch has 3 prongs on the back. i want to use one switch for my e-fans. so i'll have one wire for going up to the switch for the e-fan trigger, then a ground, but what is the other prong for on the back of the switch? thanks.

fox_forma Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 by chance is the switch and illuminated one? If so one of the prongs is to light it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xero Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 the bottom is the ground, the middle is to your power source and the top is the + wire on what ever your wiring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holty Posted June 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 thanks for the reply. i couldn't wait so i wired it up just guessing what was what. i got the power and ground backwards and when i hit the switch something under the dash started smoking! there was a pretty good bit of smoke. about as much as one puff on a cigarette. i got it all working and wired correctly, but i can't figure out what i fried under the dash. i looked under there for an hour and can't see any burnt wires and everything seems to be working ok. any suggestions on finding what caused the smoke? should i just forget about it since everything is working?

Xero Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 i wouldnt worry too too much, first time i wired a switch i did that too...the truck i did it to is 7 years old and still runs fine. I dont think youll have too much of a problem. if you do youll know what you fryed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
