Default Installing used slp line lock wiring question

I bought an slp line lock from a member here. I have it installed and brakes bled. The only thing Im not sure of is the wiring. The solenoid has two spade connectors and I think the bottom one is for the constant 12v frm the battery post right in front of the line lock. Now the switch I bought has three spade connectors and Im not sure what each of these are. I obviously know one is for the ground, but the other two Im unsure. I know one goes to the top spade on the solenoid and Im thinking the otheris a switched 12v. Any help is appreciated.

Are the two spades on the solenoid a 12v and ground?

Does your switch have a little light on it? If so, that's why it has 3 connectors

It depends on the switch, but 2 of the pins are the actual switch part. So power in, power out to the solenoid. The third pin is a ground so that the little light will turn on. You don't have to connect it if u don't want to

Ok on the switch the constant 12v would be a switched accesory so power is only there when the key is on, then the switches accessory spade would go out to the solenoid, and the ground Ill just ground under the dash. Then the solenoid second spade should go to a ground under the hood. I think that makes sense Ill just go out and wire it up and see if it works. Thanks

GOT IT WORKING. heres how its wired in case anyone else ever needs to do this.

The switch in the car has an ignition 12v going to it, then a 12v out that goes up to the solenoid bottom spade. There is also a ground on the switch and a ground on the top spade of the solenoid. Wasn't really that hard and the fuse box has an ign and acc plug right there in it so you can use either one.
