rear blind switch query
 
Hi,I am using a rear blind switch to operate the garage door opener as I have a spare slot in the dash,and had this set up in my old A8,and I really miss the convienience of it!!!

My question is, does anyone know which of the switch pin outlets, on the back are for illumination?

I know pins 4 and 6 are for the garage door remote.that works fine,its just it would be nice if it illuminated.

Cheers

Flash git.... :D

Pins 1 and 3 are illumination - Pin 1 is grey/blue (positive) and Pin 3 is brown (ground)

Just piggy back them off any of the other switches that are already there (ESP for example), you'll see the wires are the same colour throughout +++

job done
 
Cheers Ian for reply,spot on as usual,picked up from the vent wiring in the end,as it had those wires exposed,rather than the switches, as their wiring is wrapped in cloth.+++
Thanks for the thumbs up Clive :D

Good idea, I'm going to look into doing this too.
