I'm working on an automotive project. I have an electric water pump and fan, both of which will be powered through relays. I also have an on-off-on dpdt switch. What I'd like to achieve is activating the pump at both poles and just the fan at the other. This seems doable, but in all my attempts I've only been able to have both on or both off. How do I wire the switch to achieve my goal?
