Why is it that my hollow switch is turned off when i push it down.. And turned on when in the normal position.. It was inverted.. Is it a factory defect sir?
Thank you for the video and not rambling on. You camera was all set up perfect so we can truly see what you are actually doing. Most videos people are in the way and you can’t see anything

Great - just used this to help some else out. My switch came without instructions or labeling so I had to use a multi-meter to figure out what each pin did. Wish I had seen this earlier.
Is there a way to not have the power go to the "light", but just complete that circuit? The scenario I have is like two circuits: 1 circuit to just light up the led on the switch when "on", and the other circuit is when the switch is "on", but no power goes to it. It already has power, but I want to interrupt it with a switch. I am installing a fuse bypass switch (2 pin), but would like to use a nice button switch with an LED indicator when on.
So can the halo have its own power supply ? Say I want to mount 10 of these switch’s on a switch board, can I daisy chain style jump the ground and jump the halo power wire so that can all stay on all the time
Could this be used to switch on a pc inside an arcade cab if it was wired to the pc’s power pins? If so would you need to feed it additional power for the led? The arcade cab comes with a +12v +5v -5v psu.
Hello. I bought a switch that was rated on the aliexpress ad as: 9-30v(12v) button. When I got it, it says it's rated for 12-24v. Is it possible to use to turn on am amplifier that will send 150watts total? I think my battery pack will give around 26v.
I would like to use a 5 pin switch to act as a ground switch to bypass the Thermo switch on my truck to activate the fans. My thinking is. POS and Minus hooked up to the dash lights so the halo is activated when I turn on the lights. And the COM hooked up to the ground wire from the Thermo switch and either NC or NO to a ground. Does this sound like it’ll work?
I just gave up on my led strips they’ve been mounted in my truck bed for 3 months just cuz I couldn’t get the switch to work and now that I have found a vid my switch wires are a different damn color 🤦🏾♂️ so I’m still stuck
All the halo switches I’ve seen have been momentary but it appears this one is latching. Do you still have the number or maker of the switch? I tried the link but it is dead
So... Connect to an accessory wire if u want it on all time but only when vehicle turns on right? to avoid battery draining we don't connect straight to battery
How do i power up a selenoid and have the light go on and turn off when i power it off? which wires go where? I want to go from a power source to the switch and then to one wire on the selenoid and then back out of the selehoid to the negative battery or ground. How is this wired to accomplish this? I want to engage the AC compressor and keep it on but when i might forget i need the light showing it is still engaged so how is this done?
I have halo switches five wire 19mm with power ring and symbol LED. I want to be able to link three switches with power to distribute it out to three colors of LED lights which have a black wire and other colored wires for blue green and red LEDs . I have a115 volt to 12 volt transformer having a positive and negative 12 volt output. My question is how to i power my LED lights with three switches turning on and off the LED marker lights and have the power symbol and ring turn on when i turn on the marker lamps each turning on separate LED marker lamps. How is the wiring done to make this work?
You may use 3 halo switches. Tap the common wires(blue) of your 3 halo switches to your +12v power source. Connect the black wires together of you 3 halo switches to (-12v) of your power source. Tap the red wire of your halo switch to each of the normally open wires (green). Connect the normally open wires (green) to each of the positive input of your led lights separtely. Then connect the negative input of your led lights to negative source.
Yes.. it's just normally click to close then locked and re-click to open.. one thing I need to know just answered.. i thougt this thing is a "push-on" then release button means off.. thank you brothe
Could you post a circuit diagram of this set up or help me show which wire is connected to which pin on the switch. I have the same switch however the wires are of different colours
I tried this wiring up some LED lights in my garage, running off of a car battery (no mains power). I found it worked slightly differently, even though the switch and harness are identical. I wanted the halo switch to be on when the lights where off (so I could find it in the dark) and switch off when the lights were on (so I didn't drain any unnecessary power from the battery. I tried wiring it up according to this video and the switch just worked as normal but with no halo light working. I found if I connected the green wire to the power supply whilst red and yellow were connected and connected blue to the lights it worked as expected. The switch will only sit in the jacket one way. You might wish to try this if you are experiencing the same problems
some manufacturers use different color codes. Just look behind the socket, you can see labels with NO, NC, C, +, -. These stands for normally open, normally close, common, positive, negative.
Hi there, I bought exactly the same switch, but my wiring has white and brown instead of green and yellow, how do I know the function for each one? And thank you for the easy to follow video!
@@chomytuideas1784 thanks for the quick reply... I just came back home and checked for these codes. This is what I have... Brown =NC Blue =NO Red =+ Black =- White =C I pretty much squared all of them but the white. What C is for? Thank you very much in advance!
Here's my situation. I'm trying to connect one of these Halo switches in my car using a fuse tap, which will power a led strip when the button is pressed. I would like the halo light to be off when not using but then on when pressed. How do I connect my wires from the fuse tap, to the halo switch, to the led strip?
@@chomytuideas1784 Ok. So: NO and (+) together C connects to fuse tap For the LED strip lights ... (+) to NO and (+) of halo switch? (-) of LED strip lights to (-) of halo switch?

Are you able to use a 5 prong Halo switch in a 2-way and 3-way switching mode. Ie hook up 2 or 3 switches that can switch on or off the light?
Havent tried it yet but its possible
Is 220v available for this kind of seitch
You rock, very simple instructions....

you can use resistor sir
Hello. I bought a switch that was rated on the aliexpress ad as: 9-30v(12v) button. When I got it, it says it's rated for 12-24v. Is it possible to use to turn on am amplifier that will send 150watts total? I think my battery pack will give around 26v.
I am replacing a toggle switch with this. Will it work with no ground (-) “earth”? I want the light to come on only when I press it.

But what if the circuit voltage is just around 5v? How do you light up the 12v halo led?
Hi
Will the switch light up if it is connected to 3.7v battery 🔋 ?
12v only
Do I need a relay if powering a basic automobile radio?
yes.better use relays
What am i doing wrong if the led only works if i hold the button in?
connect the (+) wire to Normally Open
What a great video!

What does the middle pin do
@@ThelifeofBigJody middle pin is NC
Can we used this method to wire up hazard (emergency) sign?
yes... use diodes. 1n4007 or 6a10
Do you have a sample video or diagram of hazard using halo switch sir.tnx
How can I wire this to turn on when I press the button but deliver a ground signal instead of 12v ?
instead of connecting the common wire from the positive 12v, connect it to ground as source. it will then produce a ground output
Could you post a circuit diagram of this set up or help me show which wire is connected to which pin on the switch. I have the same switch however the wires are of different colours
