    I need to install couple of rocker switches with LEDs in a cargo van. This is exactly what I needed, a simple explanation of how these switches work and should be connected. Thank you.

    Thanks for this. I bought some LED rocker switches with no instructions and couldn't work out why there were 3 terminals.. It all makes sense now!
    Is the brass prong just so you know it's negative, or is there a special reason the negative needs to be brass?

    Can the ground from the lights go to the frame?

    What if the light(accessory) negative can't reach the battery, can I combine it into the ground wire coming from the battery into the rocker switch?

      Ground it to the body of the car. It doesn't need to go to the battery negative just ground it to the frame structure by loosing up a screw and ground the negative wire to it

    I wired in this switch exactly how you said...and It didnt work. The power wire from the battery goes on the bottom terminal and the feed to the accessory goes to the middle. Explain that one!

      Still works as in the video, just a different layout
      Supply would be battery positive
      Acc would be accessory
      Ground would be.. well ground lol

    You don't do something improperly and then say you will show how to do it right later! You should have at least use clip leads. You had NO fuse in the circuit so what you had could have burnt up if those bare wires shorted out. Very poor.
