I know this is an amazingly stupid question, but how does this switch get wired?
 The three wires off of the switch run to the fresh air blower motor, and the brown wire is the ground. Where does the 12V+ attach to? |

This is basically the on/off switch for the blower, with the ground being the switch leg. Power goes to the fan, the ground from the fan goes to this switch.. the switch completes ground to let power flow. |

I am going to use the switch to run an AC/Heat unit and wanted to understand the circuit. |
