So, i've tried to wire a square switch from cali raised to my Diode Dynamics light. The Diode Dynamics switch is a two way rocker switch, at the rear there are three wires. Yellow, red, and blue. The red wire is hot and is fused. I tried to connect the switch but it didnt work.

I connected the yellow wire to the red colored, hot, fused wire.
Green and blue went to the other two wires on the Diode Dynamics rocker switch.
Ignored red and black because the diagram says its just for backlighting.

Has anyone added this switch to a Diode Dynamics light bar?

Thanks in advance

I can't help you with the switch you are trying to use. My wire colors are different. I have black, red, blue. I can tell you that:

Black is ground (-).

Black(-) + Red(+) = driving lights
Black(-) + Blue(+) = amber lights

This helped wire mine, make sure the black is grounded to somewhere metal



Wiring connections:
• Ground: Connect the black wire of the switch to a solid ground point, such as a metal bolt under the vehicle's dashboard (11:36, 12:30).
• Backlight Power: Connect the red wire of the switch to a wire tap on your vehicle's existing dashboard wiring. This ensures the switch's backlight turns on when you activate your headlights (11:38, 12:42).
• Main Power In: Connect the yellow wire on the switch to the main power source wire of your light harness (11:58).
• Main Function Out: Connect the green wire on the switch to the power output wire for your primary lighting (12:08).
• Backlight Function Out: Connect the blue wire on the switch to the wire responsible for your secondary (backlight) lighting function (12:14).
