Upfitter Switches - What to use them on?
#16
- Amber running lights — raptor grille lights
- LED off-road driving lights
- Rear/reverse lights
- Factory/Train horn toggle
- Air compressor
- unused
I just wish I could find custom decals for the switches. The guy mentioned in some threads here years ago doesn’t do it anymore. eBay sellers don’t either.

My 2020 STX came with the upfitter switches, which are not an option I have had on my past trucks. So what is everyone using their upfitter switches on? I'm interested in putting them to use, but looking for ideas. I am definitely considering fog lamps upfront and adding lights under (or in) the rear bumper. Please share how you're using them. Thanks in advance.
Switch circuits 5 and 6 are fused at 40 A each and can be group-configured as “Hot on Run” or “Always Hot”.

You can use one of the switches with a relay to disable the locking of the front hubs. This will keep the transfer case in low but not put you in 4wd. Nice for backing a trailer or other things at low speed that don't require tons of traction. Keeps from putting unneeded strain on the 4wd sysem.

Have y'all seen the updated 2022 manual where the circuit amperage ratings have changed?

Have a switch pro and the upfitters on mine.
upfitters are used for high idle, ham radio, horn toggle, air compressor. 2 others are wired to the switch pros to flood the front or rear.
switch pro runs my light bar, amber and white fogs, rock lights, amber and white rear lights, amber white strobes, and air horn.
These switches beg to be used

The relay box location moved to the passenger side on the 20+. That's an improvement imo, but it could have made the wires harder to get to. That could be what he's talking about.
