How to wire a 3 prong rocker switch

How to wire a 3 prong rocker switch with light and fitted to an led on my portable fish finder

Making up a 12v switch panel and been trying to find out how to wire up the switches. Have seen several videos from different people and they are all different, thank goodness I found yours because it’s the only one that I can follow and makes sense. Thank you.

FYI - Always use a good crimper so it makes nice crimps and not ugly loose ones like the ones in the video. Also, don't use the wrong color connector butts for the wire you are using - do the job right, especially if you're going to make a video to show others. Cheers.

Recently bought some of those switches for adding lighting to my camper..no instructions so this helped clarify each pins use. Thanks

Best video I’ve seen for wiring these switches as all others say have an extra wire for the ground from the light! I thought you could do it your way and you’ve confirmed it! Thanks!

Nice one geeza, helped me sort out a usb point I added to my RV that I wanted it to have a switch. I could t figure out the 3 prong thing on the rocker switch. So thank you…

Hello, I currently have a device which has a simple 2 pole/prong switch. I want to put in a switch with a light. I recently bought a switch with a light in it like yours. How different is the wiring from a 2 prong to a 3 prong switch?

Every other video has the center post going to the positive power supply from battery and the bottom post going to the device you want to power. Is yours mixed up?

Thanks for your video,
I'm going to replace switch on my mini oil heater, but on my original switch has 3 input connections and it's written 1A, 3B, and 4B, how do I know which one +, - and ground?
Thanks again

Would a two prong switch work when opening a ethernet cord and putting the switch in the middle. And make a internet cut off switch?

Hi I’ve made one of the boxes with a main switch to power everything in the box but when it’s in the off position it’s still lit up but still works turning on and off the rest of the box is it an easy fix or a faulty switch?

[errndog]

So could you actually cut off about half of each of the 3 pins and just solder the wires and it still work??
