Hi... i'm have a vary hard time wireing up the simplest thing. i have a illuminated rocker switch. The cheap kind u get a crapy tire... It has three prongs on it. one say's ground, acc and power... so i thought about it for a mint and then i connected the ground to some metal and then i connected a acc line from the ignition... then i figured the one labled power would be the out put... like when it on... so I turned on the ignition and then they all light up but when u flip the swithc it shorts out and blows the fuse... i'm getting kinda pissed... to me i would think a little switch wouldn't be hard to install but its pissing me off....
PLEASE HELP

Just reverse your acc and power leads, this should solve your problem. If it blows another fuse I would suspect a short in the wiring or a bad switch.
