This will only work for switches with a filament type light bulb. If the switch has an LED then you must use the copper coloured pin as negative/ground or the LED will not light.

Got me confused. You say copper pin is for the positive in but based on the switch wiring you are then running the load through the light. Diagram shows copper tab as -ve or neutral for operating the light and silver tabs are for input and load.

It works with me! Thank you very much. One last question please, Although it works but the red light in the switch didn't work, Do you know why? *NOTE: - I use an adpter like you, so the switch is conecting with 2A 12V - (15A 250V, 20A 125V) was written on the switch

Are you sure this isn’t backward? Most instructions / diagrams (and KZfaq videos) say to wire the copper wire the ground / negative. Also usually the I / on is at the top (O / off on the bottom ) for safety reasons.

Hi! i noticed too. Try to figure out when switch has NO Brass \Copper pin. Is + pin, (IF end) on off side?
@RND-USA
@RND-USA 4 ай бұрын
@@kareno8634 the way I do it is, I aways have the switch oriented where the ON position is at the top and the OFF is (the same way most switches actually labeled “On” and “Off” are oriented - On is at the top). From there I know that the copper pin should have also been on the top. It’s maybe safest to get the manual / spec sheet from the manufacturer in case you have an oddball switch, but in my cases I found that the copper is supposed to be on the top.

Great video. Question...I'm new (self taught) to electrical engineering, repair + maintenance of ebikes. I installed a 4-light system on ebike - backlight, high beam (×1) and low beam (×2). I run everything through a 12v/24v power source (bank). Recently, I decided to add rocker switch (×2) to separate high be from low beam. I noticed that the LED indicators on the rockers will sometimes work, sometimes not but the lights will always work. I've looked for shorts, can't find anything. Power source is rated for 12v/24v. I register 28.5v on multimeter when everything is turned on. Could this be the cause why the rocker lights don't work? I've switched out rockers twice....same result. Hope u can help. Great video. /bklyn 👑
