Today was cool enough to work outside on the Isuzu. I’d made up a lead for the LED and then tested the LED actually illuminated using my new 12V power supply (the pc power supply).
After looking at the dash I decided to fit it on the air conditioning control panel. It will be high enough to be obvious, but not so high as to be a distraction if driving in 4x4 at night (not that I plan to do that)
The LED specifications stated it had a 5mm barrel but I discovered it actually required a 6mm hole in the panel. I secured the fitting with a small plastic cable tie and some glue.
All the wiring connections were then made using crimp connectors followed by a second test to ensure the LED illuminated.
The LED doesn’t illuminate when the Isuzu is in two wheel drive.
Turn the knob to 4WD and we have light

Nice work Tom, I won’t say looks factory fitted but very neat.
Cheers
