Default HELP!!! ARB compressor wiring question

I bought a used ARB compressor (CKMA12), the guy who sold it to me only used it for lockers. I just want to use it to air up. So my question is; which of the wiring loom should I use to hook up a switch? switch1, 2, or the isolating switch wiring loom and if so, which of the 5 wires? I'm using a Daystar switch which have less terminals than the ARB one.

here's the link for the wiring diagram:

thanks!!

that was my first option but I read somewhere that if you don't connect the wires at the pressure switch ( hence keeping the harness) the unit won't work

Did you hook up the pressure switch?

thanks for you reply!!

It's the isolating wire loom see the above thread and read it through to the end because there are a couple of tips that will help with your install. Even have people who ran the Daystar so you should get your questions answered by that thread.
