Aux Switches - Whatcha got wired up?

[lil_mule_4x4]

I've looked thru my watched threads and searched the forums numerous times but have been unsuccessful in finding a thread or survey about how others are using their Aux switches to power various devices. I feel that I must be searching wrong because this is 2+ years after first release and unable to find anything on the subject. Can someone provide a link to point me in the right direction?

There has to be a thread or survey on this and for whatever reason I am unable to find it. If not, tell me whatcha got wired up & what switches have you used so far? I have my rudimentary wiring schematic but was curious to get ideas on how others have utilized/dedicated their Aux switches so far. Thanks in advance.

Bull bar light

@ostmen - That's a great looking Bronco you got there...
What manuf/model did you go with?
Lumens that light up the night?
What wattage/amperage does that bull draw?
Which switch did you use?

Front bumper fogs on Aux 5 (Vision X), Baja Designs LP6 (low on Aux 4 and high on Aux 3) and LP4’s on Aux 2 along with BD S2’s for reverse lights on Aux 6. Still have Aux 1 available.

I have 40” light bar, ditch lights, fog lights, brush guard lights, rear lights, and onboard air.

Aux 2 along with BD S2’s for reverse lights on Aux 6. Still have Aux 1 available.

I see what you did with those reverse lights @NoloBronco. Gonna have to check those out and reconsider my future buildout. Current plan has Aux 1 available for a Fridge/Freezer down the road, unless a roof light bar might need the amps...

 

[lil_mule_4x4]

Keep 'em coming guys, this is very helpful. My build out plan so far is as follows:

Aux 1: Fridge/Freezer
Aux 2: Air Compressor
Aux 3: Open
Aux 4: Ditch lights
Aux 5: Rock lights
Aux 6: CB radio/Go Pro??

New items to consider due to this thread include: bumper bull light bar & Reverse lights. Changes might be needed, but I plan to start with the lower 5A switches 4, 5, 6. I prefer to keep the winch wired directly to battery instead of using an Aux.

Aux1 - KC windshield light bar
Aux2 - KC lights on bumper
Aux3 - KC A pillar lights
Aux 4 - Rock lights
Aux 5 - lighted grill letters
Aux 6 - always on power for dash usb hub, amp trigger wire and GRMS radio

Also have a 7th switch in rear for my ARB compressor, conveniently placed by the chuck

Is your windshield light bar mounted to the RTR light mount? More info please and pics please. Thought about doing this with LP6 or LP4’s.

 

[NoloBronco]

Thank you @lil_mule_4x4
I had the winch and air compressor wired up to the Aux switches at one time but took them back to the original method of switches to reserve my Aux switches.

#1 = Light Bar; #2 = Nothing at this time; #3 = Front Bumper Driving Lights; #4 = Back Bumper Lights; #5 = Ditch Lights and #6 = Oracle Grille Letters.

Yes it’s RTR. If you call them, they have a SKU (not available on web site) that is the bar, light brackets and wiring harness, just add your own lights. I did have to swap out the Deutsch connectors on the harness for the 2 pin ones that matched my KC Slimlites

 

[TEAMSLO]

Aux1 - Pair of LP6's

Aux2 - Pair of XL80 ditch lights

Aux6 - Midland MXT 575

Others are not used, one will be for chase lights, others, not sure yet.
