If you had capped the ground wire and simply fed the purple wire with a positive signal when the AUX switch was ON then your install would have just failed when the main ground broke and when you found that you could have just re-terminated that. As I said before, that BLACK in the switch wire...
Shout out to our Melbourne engineer, Sam, on this one.
The fact that the installer un-necessarily grounded the switch wire...

Hey guys,
Grimm Off-Road is very careful in their installation guide to make sure that you connect the switch correctly. They even highlight the direction of the arrows because this is so important.
If you plug those wires on in the reverse order (i.e., PURPLE - RED - BLACK) then when you...
