OEX ACX3678 12V 10A Illuminated Latching On/Off Push Button Switch SPST Green and Red Dual LED Status Indication
The OEX ACX3678 is a 12V, 10A illuminated On/Off push button switch in a latching SPST configuration, featuring a dual-colour green/red LED indicator. Unlike the momentary ACX3677BL which returns to Off when released, the ACX3678 is a latching switch pressing it toggles between On and Off states and the switch remains in the selected position until pressed again. The green LED illuminates when On and the red LED illuminates when Off, providing unambiguous status indication at all times rather than only when active. Suited to LED lighting, accessory fans, relay triggers and general 12V auxiliary circuits. Covered by a one year warranty.
Product overview
The dual-colour LED indicator is the ACX3678's key feature for multi-switch panel installations. Most illuminated switches show a status light only when the circuit is active. The ACX3678 shows green when On and red when Off, meaning the switch always displays its current state regardless of position making it easy to confirm at a glance whether any circuit in the panel is on or off without inspecting the load itself. This is particularly valuable in multi-switch control panels, auxiliary accessory circuit panels and installations where confirming circuit state quickly matters.
The latching action means the switch holds its position after being pressed suitable for circuits that need to stay on without continuously holding the button, unlike a momentary switch which only activates while held. At 10A and 12V it handles direct switching of most standard 12V accessories, LED lighting circuits, fans and relay trigger inputs. For loads exceeding 10A, the switch should trigger a relay rather than wiring the load directly through the switch contacts.

Latching On/Off action: Press to toggle between On and Off. Switch stays in the selected position until pressed again. Not a momentary switch.
Green LED when On, red LED when Off: Dual-colour status indication provides unambiguous visual feedback at all times not just when the circuit is active.
10A at 12V: Suited to direct switching of LED lighting, accessory fans, relay triggers and general 12V accessories. For loads exceeding 10A, use the switch to trigger a relay.
SPST configuration: Single pole single throw for straightforward one-circuit on/off control.
Push button form factor: Tactile, modern switch style for dash panel, console and accessory box installations.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a momentary or latching switch? The ACX3678 is a latching (maintained) switch pressing it toggles the circuit between On and Off and the switch stays in the selected position until pressed again. This differs from a momentary switch such as the ACX3677BL, which only activates while the button is held and returns to Off when released. For circuits that need to stay on without holding the button, a latching switch is the correct choice.
What do the green and red LEDs indicate? Green illuminates when the switch is in the On position (circuit active). Red illuminates when the switch is in the Off position (circuit inactive). This dual-colour indication means the switch always shows its current state, making it easy to confirm at a glance whether the circuit is on or off in a multi-switch panel.
How does this differ from the ACX1962BL? The ACX1962BL is a pre-wired mouse-style surface mount switch with adhesive backing, designed for easy surface installation without a panel cutout. The ACX3678 is a panel-mount push button for installation in a switch panel or console cutout. Both feature green/red dual-colour LED indication at 10A and 12V, but suit different installation styles.
What is the maximum load this switch can handle directly? This switch is rated at 10A at 12V. For loads exceeding 10A, use the switch to trigger a relay rather than wiring the load directly through the switch contacts.
What mounting hole does this switch require? Mount diameter is not confirmed in the current product data. Contact us to confirm the required panel cutout size before installing.
