    OK so I had my driving Lights on my front bar connected to a switch I got from an auto parts store (it has a little blue light that lights when on) But I finally ordered the Scion OEM Style Rocker Switches and I connected everything up and the lights come on and off when I flip the switch BUT the green light on the switch itself stays on in both the on and off positions.

    I have my lights wired with a relay (basic wire diagram I got off here I think). What am I doing wrong that the light on the switch is staying on??

    Reverse the hot and the wire going to the relay.
    The indicator light is connected to the output terminal and the ground terminal. If you apply power to the output terminal and the relay on the input terminal, the relay will be triggered properly, but the indicator will always be on.
