Beginner How to: wiring 5 pin switch with ring led

Post by Stsguy »

Hey folks in a 50ish yr old guy that loves to tinker with all things electrical.
I purchased the Beautimus 16mm on off ring led buttons for my motorcycle dash. Having found these buttons I was excited to install. It made it easier knowing which resistors to buy and I thought I knew how to wire them up until I sit down to do it. A few things confused me and I could not find an easy to follow video. So I dug around and gathered the info.
I decided to make a how to vid to help the few that may have trouble as I did.
I was close to doing it right but I wanted to make sure not to damage anything.
Thanks to Adafruit for the great product fast shipping and most of all these fourms. Cheers Joe . https://youtu.be/f-UqpggRE9E
