Cali Raised Wiring Question

I checked the many other wiring issues threads but couldn't find what I was looking for. That being said, I just installed some @CaliRaisedLed ditch lights and wired it up to one of their switches. Like in their instructional video, I did not use an add-a-circuit simply because I dont have one right now. They said in their video that they just put the second red wire with the one closest to the green. I didn't fully understand this. Did they actually connect the two reds from the switch to the same wire or did they leave the second red switch wire not attatched to anything, just taped to the first red wire for organization? Right now I dont have the second red wire attached to anything and the lights and switch work perfectly... The lights turn on and off with the switch whether the engine is running or not, and the switch's light only comes on when you push it on. Do I need to put the second red wire to an add-a-circuit or can I just leave it as is? Thanks!

 

The second red wire next to the black wire is for the lower LED that lights the words. You can leave it as you have it, and it won't hurt anything. You can wire it to an add-a-circuit on the tail fuse when you get one, so the words light when you turn on the headlights. Finally, you can tie the two red wires together to light both the upper and lower LEDs when the switch is pushed.

 

Awesome, thank you so much for your response, I'll probably keep running it as is then!

 

Good morning. I am trying to weed through this same switch wiring.

1. Installed Cali raised LED hidden grill bar, used their provided relay harness and switch. So trying to wire the MicTuning switch (plan to cut the push button switch from Cali and splice). The Cali raised switch (shown below) has 3 wires:
White = +12v power to push button
Blue = +0.3v power to status LED (red off/green on)
Black = - Ground

The MicTuning switch leads shown below:


2. Next one...wiring PIAA driving lights/relay to same type MicTuning switch.

Wires to switch from PIAA relay (shown below):

White/red dots = ?
Black/red dots = ?

I also read indicator light should be pulled from the fuse box 10a tail light using add-a-fuse, shown below.

I will provide good diagram and more pics to help others if someone can please chime in on how to wire these switches..

Found this post. Has some data on how tire wireup OBA and MicTuning switches.

 

Is the red light always going to be on after you take the key out? Because mine is
