I installed a LED Light bar and I want to wire the switch that came with the light bar to one on my Aux switches. The led light switch has a plug with 3 wires. I haven't looked at the aux switch wire on my Jeep yet. Does it also have 3 wires? How do I connect the switch wire to the aux switch wire?
Thanks

I wouldn't use the rocker switch from the the lightbar....disconnect it, connect the red (?) Wire to the aux switch you'll use (3 depending on amps) and control it with the jeeps switches...black wire should be ground and the 3rd wire (white I assume) is only to light up the rocker switch. That's how most switches are configured but w.o pics we can't tell.

Ok, so the red (power) wire is the only wire I need to connect to the Jeep Aux switch wire?

How did you run the wires through the firewall? I haven't checked for a hole yet but I'm sure there is one

If you have the AUX switches, there are wires for the switches in the cabin and inside the engine compartment. I had to loosen the battery hold down to retrieve my terminate wires under the hood.

I didn't. I connected to the aux wires that are bundled next to the battery.
I used one for my light bar and one for my A-PILLAR lights.
