Hi All,
I am working on my 1st case mod and bought some LED switches for the power and reset buttons. No instructions came with the switches so I need some help.

I have attached a photo of the pin layout on the switches. I need to know how to wire the switches so the LED's come on when the power is on. At the moment, the power stays on when the computer is turned off.

I wired the switches + and - to a molex connector but I think this is perhaps where I went wrong. Please help. I need to know how it should be wired.

you want to wire the c1 and no1 pins to a two pin female header connector. this will connect to your mobo's "power switch" header.

then you can wire the + and - to a similar two pin female header connector and connect it to your "power led" header on your mobo.
