Hey guys

I installed two sets of spot lights on my rig and used contura rocker switches. I got it working and everything but my rocker switches have a two light funtion. Lower light that illuminates when i turn on the interior lights and upper for when im actually running them.

My question what wire can i tap into hook up #6 on the back of the rocker switch to light up when i turn on my lights at night? Ive read of prople jumping #3 to #6 but wouldnt the light be constantly on even if the truck isnt running? Yes ive used the search function and have read numerous threads and looked at the fsm. Its probably easy but for the life of me cant figure out which wire i should tap into. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Connect #6 to pretty much any green wire in the dash lighting circuit. If you want that LED to dim with dash, connect #7 to pretty much any white wire with green stripe. If you want full brightness, connect #7 to ground. You can find both those wires at the round dimmer rheostat.

Thanks durk!

My rocker switches are located under my headunit. So i have a t-tap in the cigarette outlet illumination wire. And this illuminates the lower led on 3 of my rocker switches. No fuses nothing. They are small LED. Don't go crazy here. Simple t-tap and that it. Depending where your switches are. Use a test light to see when it gets power when your headlights are on.

Mine are on the left hand side below the ac vent..will tap into one of the wires @TheDurk mentioned..but good idea on the cig lighter! I would do that if my switches were there

Or you can add a fuse , use a line that gets power with the key on
