Just a small bit. I am looking to re engineer part of the mecanism and make it rattle free and operate smoothly. As of right now, though it is bearable as everything else is louder. i.e. tires, engine, radio, girlfriend, etcDoes your overhead console rattle at all? Switches look great.
HAHA I hear you on the girlfriend part.Just a small bit. I am looking to re engineer part of the mecanism and make it rattle free and operate smoothly. As of right now, though it is bearable as everything else is louder. i.e. tires, engine, radio, girlfriend, etc![]()
The only problem with those switches is that at night you can't see the images on them. The "starburst" design of the colored window makes it impossible to see the image. I tried that first, then did it this way. I am much happier with the results now. Even the GF can see them and understand what they mean. Which is good, cause she is getting more comfortable with driving it on the trail.HAHA I hear you on the girlfriend part.
Here's a picture of my recent Contura II switch install, not quite as elaborate as yours, but clean none the less.

Depends what you want to use them for. For a simple on/off switch, no. Those would be a waste as you wouldn't need the momentary on. That is a 3 position switch.Are these the ones that I need? (besides the fact these are ON/OFF/ON(MM)).

I noticed with the blue ones in this same location (where the stock defrost would be) I have no issues at night seeing the print because there is the little light above that area. BUT,,,,, I mounted three more below them and you can't see the print at night without a light shining on them.. I'll be putting a small LED above those.HAHA I hear you on the girlfriend part.

I'm pretty sure they only have 4 terminals. They are wired as shown in the pics.For these switches, they have 5 pins to connect wires to. You show only 3, plus a 4th going to your accessories. What happened to the 5th pin?
I can't believe that light still works on your yj I have never been able to keep a light in there for more than a few days so I gave up about 10 years agoI noticed with the blue ones in this same location (where the stock defrost would be) I have no issues at night seeing the print because there is the little light above that area.
Okay, I must have a slightly different model switch. Its upper light on when switch is on, and the switch that OP has is lower light on when switch on. Must be the difference. However, what is the difference between power in and illumination? Dont you use power from the dash lighting? Here is a pic of my switch and someone posted the wiring for it like such:I'm pretty sure they only have 4 terminals. They are wired as shown in the pics.
Power in
Ground
Illumination
Switched power out
What other terminal are you refering to?
