wiring diagram for a 3pin on/off switch

Post by Gilbert Louis » 29 Oct 2008, 22:12

Hi, I'm looking for a wiring diagram for the on/off switch it's a 3pin one.

If some has one or could explain how to wire it as I'm changing mine and I can't see how it was connected as it protected in some kind of plastic insulation.

Cheers

If I understand your question, connect the battery +vs to the centre pin. Connect one outer pin to the Rx and the other pin to the plug for charging.

The -ve wires are joined together.

Now with the switch in one position the battery will charge and the Rx is off. Throw the switch and the charge circuit is off and the Rx is live.
