Default Installing Switch

Hi all HAN
Im looking for some help w/ installing a L.E.D Switch on my remote wire to my amps...

On the Switch...it has a Positive terminal, a Negative terminal, and a Accessory terminal....

For the Negative...I could ground it near the HU...but for Accessory terminal...where should I connect that up to???

Also, where should I connect the Positive wire to??

Thanks in advance!!!
Tom

the LED power's up with indication of power course.
and you are seeking to have it light up when it's in that accessory mode.
so splice the acessory power line, and hook up the LED to power it, and ground it near it's place like you said.

little confused/slow on the spot....
the switch have 1-positive terminal and 1-accessory terminal and 1-ground

so if i wanna put the switch on the remote wire (that send signal from my HU to turn on my amps) so i would connect the remote wire to the accessory terminal, and connect the positive terminal to igntion???? and negative to ground (of course)

im i going on the right route?

not to the ignition.
you have to find out what wire sends the signal/power to the accessory terminal.
and splice off that wire to power up the LED.

Hope that's alot more clear

LED does not require alot of power. something like HID's which provides alot power light and lasts long, but requires about 1/10th of power of helogen.
