Anyone know about Ignited Switches??.. need help..

I picked up a couple of these and they have an LED light at the end, made my Ignited. Basically i can assume the wires will be put on in an "in" and "out" fashion at the bottom part but i am curious as to whether the piece on the right should hook up to a power supply or whether this is a ground for the LED, but in that case what would power the LED?

also... i bought 16ga wire to extend this with my engine start button and ignition. i have it figured out how i will be wiring it but will this gauge work?

thanks a lot, i appreciate it.

ok look on the swithch. u will see the three poles. the one out of place near the front is the ground. you need to groudn this one for your led to work.

then you run power to the power post. it may be a lil light or something. and then out to the light itself.

as for how the other two are labeld. im not 100% but i do know i had to ground the mystery pole on mine.

Always use a push button, momentary on (usually push to make), switch so that if you have to stop starting you just let go.
