I have a trolling motor with a 40 amp max. Could I split this over the 3 switches to use as an on/off switch?

I'm going to use one of the switches to turn a trolling motor on and off. However, the switch will not be carrying the load from the motor. The switch will be used to activate/deactivate a relay. The relay is what will carry the high amperage. You cannot in any way, shape, or form wire anything requiring more than a few amps directly to these switches.

If the ground wire attaches to the chassis, where do I connect the ground coming from the light bar?

The chassis in automotive electrical systems is used in place of wire. In this case black, because its neg. The neg terminal of the battery is connected to the frame or chassis. Then the black wire from what ever you are hooking up in this case a light bar, is connected to the frame or chassis. The frame conducts the elect. between the black wire from the light bar to the neg term. on the battery completing the circuit. You could also just run the black wire from the light bar to the neg term on the battery. Same thing and just put the switch in either the pos wire or the neg wire. Cut the wire and hook up each end to the term on the switch. When the switch is off its like cutting the wire and the light goes off. When you turn it on its like twisting the wires back together completing the circuit and the light goes on

What terminal is used for an accessory wire? Positive circuit, so it’ll only work with the key turned on?

You need to identify the circuit within your wiring harness in your car which is energized when the key is on the switches are all pre-wired and they are all gained together To work off of one power sauce and the loads are the other wires

I have a manual bilge pump that i want to wire to this. i don't want to use a float switch. this will be the only switch. how do i wire it?

Hook up power to switch then run hot wire from pump to switch that all

Good switch and simple to wire

Switch functions well, looks good, lights are bright, plugs are good aswell, easy to use, and good for cost, I have this in my 2000 Jeep XJ and it is really nice to have. Nice and simple to wire since most of it comes done for you

Solid Rocker Switches!

Solid rocker switches! Bought them to upgrade the Ranger, worked so well I bought more to upgrade the Lund! Bright LED indicator lights (as if the Nilight LED lightbars weren't making the night look like high noon!) stood out on the dash. Connecting various size wires to the blades on the switches was easy and they stand up to all the vibration you can give them. Highly recommend,

Works great

These work great, and look great. They are very well made, the lighting looks great. They also came with several cool switch stickers. This was a great price as well

Good option for Jeep XJ

Fits perfect in my 88 Jeep Cherokee XJ. Minor trimming with the dremel. Wiring was simple and as described.

Nilight 2 gang rocker switch well built

Well built switch assembly. Already pre-wired for single source input. I have separate fused sources for each switch so the positive wiring was easy to change out. Plenty of labels but not much for off grid solar system. Aluminum mounting panel with included screws is another nice feature.

Excellent quality box

This is a very well made, super heavy-duty aluminum switch box. It turns out a didn’t need it as I mounted switches directly in dashboard (not an easy thing to do on modern vehicles). I also ordered 3 rocker switches which came installed in an aluminum faceplate. Both the box and the switches were same brand, Nilight, but the face plate that came with the switches does not fit the 3 gang box (which comes with its own faceplate). Not a big deal but I would have thought the plate would fit on the box.
