Multiple OEM style switches to same Add-A-Fuse for backlight

Just adding this cause I saw another thread asking about putting multiple switches on the same add-a-fuse to have them backlit. This was the solution I installed for my 2020 TRD pro.

I purchased the following items along with the 3 OEM style switches for my Air Compressor, Bumper Light Bar, And Ditch lights which you can pick up from cali raised led or Amazon.

-

$5 WAGO 773-164 Push Wire Connector - 4 Conductor – 10 PK

Wago Push Wire connector w/4 conductors

-

$21 Southwire 55668023 Primary Wire, 16-Gauge Bulk Spool, 100-Feet, Red

Southwire 16awg spool

-

$11 Nilight - 50038R 10 Pack 12V Car Add-a-circuit Fuse TAP Adapter with 5 Amp Low Profile Mini Blade Fuse Set for Cars Trucks Boats,Blue, Red, Black, Orange

Add-a-fuse low profile mini blade fuse



1) Cut but splice connector off Add-a-fuse




2) Strip shielding off the end of the add-a-fuse



3) Insert add-a-fuse into wago push wire connector



4) Cut off 3 wires from the spool to whatever length you'd like and strip the shielding off to connect into the WAGO push connector. I made mine slightly longer than the remaining length of the add-a-fuse.




4) Strip the shielding off the ends of 3 wires that were just added to the WAGO connector and install butt splice connectors. Each OEM switch's "Red 2" wire or the one closest to black will connect to these butt splice connectors(For the ARB compressor it is the blue wire that is included in their harness). I've included the wire diagram of the OEM style switch for reference.





5) After butt splicing your OEM switches to your accessory wire harnesses. Install the add a fuse into the 5A "Panel" slot on the fuse panel under the steering wheel. Your switches will now be backlit when your dash lights are on.





I hope this is helpful. I know it helped me clean up some wiring and got all of my switches lit up like I wanted

 

Thanks for the info I have 3 oem style switches I need to do this too. I wasn’t to confident having them all backlit but this looks easy and neat
