I just installed a set of Lightforce ROK 40 ditchlights on my truck, and everything was working fine with the switch that came with it. But I cut that off, and am trying to install a push button OEM switch. However it’s not working. The OEM switch has 4 wires, (green, red 1, red 2, and black). The ditchlights have 3 wires coming out, (black, blue, red) I’m not sure which wires connect to which. If someone has connected a push button switch to a set of lights and is able to help me out, that would be great. Thank you :)
 
Update: after about 5 hours of trying to figure out what was wrong, what wires went where, and debating if I should just drive my truck off a cliff in frustration, I figured out what was wrong. I blew the fuse when I first started and never noticed. Anyways the lights and switch work and I won’t drive my truck off a cliff

Lol, glad you figured it out. I know the feeling. If I had a dollar for each time I debate driving the truck off a cliff when I work on it, I'd be able to just drive it off the cliff and afford to buy a new one. It seems like I always run into frustrating little things like you did.
