[QUOTE="swoop1156, post: 43404, member: 580"] Here is the thing that you guys need to understand about the AUX switches... The wiring can be hooked up in ANY fashion that you want. If you want Yellow to connect to Red like most prefer, you can do that. If you want Yellow to go to the Green, you can do that too. You can criss-cross it however you want to to make it fit your application. The thing that you need to remember and realize is that the yellow goes to the red because they are the same wire gauge. The blue would go to purple or something, the green to the brown, whatever. I forget. But you CAN do it however you want. Second thing to remember... The rated amperage/fuses for the AUX 1-4 switches are only rated that because that's what the fuse that Ford put in is rated at. You want to make AUX 1 rated less? Swap the fuse from 4 into 1. Want to make switch 3 the highest? Switch 3 and 1 under the hood in the fuse panel. You can do them ANY WAY you want -- only you can decide that. --- To get your AUX 1 to work for your cutout, you first need to get behind the glovebox. There, you will find BOTH the leads from the AUX switches AND the leads from the engine bay. Yellow is from the AUX 1 switch. There is also a Red coming from the engine bay. Hook those together and your AUX 1 switch will now power the Red wire inside the engine bay. Use the Red wire inside the engine bay to hook into the positive feed for the cutout. Ground the cutout at a location you prefer. Got it? Let me know and I will draw a picture, but beware that I'm no artist! :) [/QUOTE]
