Upfitter Switches

[buckeye2019]

This is my switch bank I found on eBay. I have been in contact with 4wheelelecteonics.com and they are almost ready to release the switch bank box to make all the aux switches work. Here are the pics of my switches. The black is my old uplifter switches the other one is the switches I bought off eBay.

Here’s the positions of the six aux switch signal wires in the connector that is plugged into the switch bank-

The terminals for that connector are TE Connectivity 1393365-2
For each relay:
The aux switch signal wire goes to pin 86, and completes ground, NOT power.
Use constant battery power for pins 85 and 30.Do not use switched power, as that is what the aux switch settings are for- to set each switch as battery or ignition power, etc.
Pin 87 is the aux output.
Here’s one of the relay boxes that people use in the engine bay when adding the factory aux switches to the HDs-

So if the switch is supposed to complete the ground and not positive, is the attached the correct wiring? I'll be the first to admit my wiring knowledge is limited and I need a picture to help understand it.

That is correct. Where the pic shows “to ground trigger source”, that would be to the aux switch bank.

You have traction control on your original switches. The one you show pictured is for a CTD, and has exhaust brake button, but no traction control.

Your correct I add the right pic now. The other one was a mistake

Thanks again .
I like it when things get easier to understand.

Whish someone could make a write-up for every thread instruction article.

Thanks @Jimmy07. Last question about the diagram; do you know the type of plug would fit that connection?

Which connection are you referring to?

 

[LoNeStAr]

I think he is referring to the aux switches

Post #54 where you provided the pin out for the existing connection.

The terminals for that connector are listed in that post.

[mention]Jimmy07 [/mention] I need your help on the connector and pins. The connector is different so I couldn’t try it. I should’ve known.

*edit* I just saw the post #54 comment. That’s for this one?

The connector is the same no matter what switch bank is used. The aux switch bank port is upside down compared to the regular switch banks.

 

[Jimmy07]

Edit to add to the above- even though the aux switch bank port has three key ways across the bottom, the same connector (flat across the bottom) is used regardless.

Ok. It wasn’t sliding in as easy as the other panel so I wasn’t going to force it. I’ll give it a shot.

Looks like iyou could run new wires to the connector and send the signal to relays and control the accessory that way. Probably wouldnt have an control over the indicator light or communication with the BCM but it could suffice.

That’s the plan

Plugged in the switches. The top four work. The aux buttons do not work (yet). It doesn’t look like there is an indicator light on the aux buttons like the top row. Each aux pin is showing ground signal and doesn’t change pushing the buttons.

Awhile back I enabled the aux settings with Alfa and a settings section appeared on my 12”. Then they disappeared. I don’t remember the state of the settings. I can’t remember if I turned them back off.

I will check tomorrow. Busy watching the Packers win!

Thanks for experimenting with this, and keeping us updated. Go, Pack, Go!

AUX buttons do have an LED indicator at the bottom edge of each switch.
