    That's not good. Did you wire the AUX lights in with that switch? Is there a relay involved?

    What's the "power point fuse"? What are you using as the trigger wire for the relay?

    the relays are powered to the battery, ground to the battery, the switch is getting its key on power from the power point fuse, the one you plug your phone in the dash, not the same power for the radio, different ground spot to,

    I have 3 toggle switches, one for the bumper light that's led, one for rear led lights, and one for an air compressor

    It's only the bumper LED light bar that interferes with the radio, right? Are the other two switches also getting their key-on power through the power point fuse? Are you saying that the bumper light SWITCH has an LED in it? If yes, does the LED indicator light in the switch stay on all the time or does it just light up when when the bumper LED light bar is on?

    It’s all the switches. The led lights on the switch come on when the acc lights are turned on . I’m thinking cheep switches
