oook, i'm wiring my fogs to an illuminated switch [had regular switch before]

and it asks for a "power, ground, and load" and right now i only got the power (+)and ground (-) wtf is load?

power is whatever your getting your power from, load is the fogs (in your situation), and ground is ground.

ya one wire is coming from battery to switch (power), then another from switch to power wire of device (load), then a ground to make the illumination work (ground). the switch will still work with no ground, it just wont light up.

finally got around to doing it, thanks a lot, works perfect now


so basically one prong powers the switch and one powers the fogs?

when you turn on the switch, it connects the power terminal to the load terminal and to the + side of the led in the switch. the other end of the led is connected to the ground terminal.

ya a switch would be the equivalent of you cutting the power wire and when you want it to turn on, just touch the two sides together. its just a power interrupt so that your fogs dont get constant power and stay on all the time.
