Quick question: Does it matter which AUX switch I connect a 20" lightbar to? I know each switch has a different AMP rating, but I imagine a 20" light won't draw a lot. Is it okay to connect it to the 30amp aux, or should I use the 10? I am by no means an electrician, so I don't know the danger in using too high of a switch. There are no markings on the light that indicate draw, and no paperwork/install instructions.
Any help would be appreciated.:baby:

How do you expect anyone to answer when you don't even identify the light bar?

Call the mfg of the light bar and ask them how much current it draws or post the light bar here and someone may know.

Also Raptors don't have 30 Amp AUX switches, the highest are 15 Amps.

This is from the 2017 Raptor Supplement. It looks like that information is for G1, which I have to assume is accurate. I incorrectly assumed you were talking about a 2017 Raptor.

AUX1 - Green(solid)/Blue(stripe) - 15A
AUX2 - Gray/Yellow - 15A
AUX3 - Violet/Orange - 10A
AUX4 - Brown/Blue - 10A
AUX5 - Gray/Orange - 5A
AUX6 - Yellow/Violet - 5A

Hard to tell that when using tapacrap. Should have guessed sooner.
