I am trying to wire a 2 position 3 prong illuminated rocker switch. It is made by seachoice and the package reads 2 position off-on (red). I take that to mean that the switch is lit when on and unlit when off. I can make the switch operate the component that I am wiring it to, but it will not illuminate. the switch has 2 prongs on one end numbered 1 and 4 and then one prong down the side numbered as 2. I have wired the positive wire to one of the end prongs and the negative on the side prong and the device works but yet the switch will not illuminate. What am I missing? Should there be a third wire connected to the other prong ? Thanks...Darren Mac:
