Ralph Wiggum Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Hey, guys. I bought an LED rocker switch to put in with a stereo on our boat, and for the life of me, I can't figure this thing out. Can someone tell me how? It's got three prongs on the back. This is what it looks like: Thank you!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kylersk Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Supply = Your Hot (positive) Load = goes to stereo Earth = ground or Negative I assume no responsibility for incorrect wiring though. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ralph Wiggum Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 Okay, I think I got it to do what I want. Does this sound correct?:The "supply" lead off the switch is connected to the (+) terminal of the batteryThe "earth" lead off the switch is connected to the (-) terminal of the batteryThe "load" lead off the switch is connected to the positive wire on the stereoThe ground wire on the stereo is connected to the (-) terminal of the batteryThis seems to work. Any problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
