I have a question about wiring of locker/compressor switches!!!!
when I turn the compressor switch on there is NO illumination until locker switch is activated. As soon as the locker switch is de-activated the illumination is also gone.
I have also got switch illumination when dash lights are active.
In suggestions please?????

sounds right to me, 1 light in em lights up when you turn the switch on, the other lights up with the dash lights

But if you turn locker switch off and leave compressor switch on then shouldn't the compressor switch be illuminated until it is switched off.

Can you explain in more detail

you shouldn't be able to turn the air locker on (eg light up the big blue bit) unless the compressor has been "armed"

the loom should have switch 1, 2 & isolation switch, it sounds like you have switch 1 & the isolation switch around the wrong way?

just to clarify, when you hit the compressor switch is the compressor turning on? or is it only turning on with the locker?

follow the wiring diagram!

Yes compressor is switching on regardless of illumination being on or not, BUT it only illuminates when locker is activated

youve gotta have he earth for the switch on light ass about and something on the locker 1 switch wrong

[joeblow]

yes, very hard diagram to follow .............

also when fitting you will notice on the back of the switch there are arrows that stand for 'up'. get them round the wrong way and the wrong lights will illuminate.
