[6pack] DPDT on-off-on rocker switch for electric fan conversion

[Foster, Stan]

I'm converting to an electric fan and the design I like the best is the one
with the option to switch between on, off and auto and this requires a DPDT
switch that has an on-off-on mode. An illuminating switch would be icing on
the cake. Since the switch is only powering a relay it can be small, although
the 6 terminals on the back will constrain how small it can be.

I have searched the web, visited Radio Shack etc and failed to come up with
anything suitable. There are dpdt on-off-on rocker switches but they are all
larger than what I want and designed for 110 or 240v appliances etc.

I wonder if anyone that has gone down this path and has come up with anything
suitable ?

Plan B, there are a ton of spst illuminated rocker switches out there, I'm
using one for my fog lamps, I wonder if there is a way to re-do the fan
circuit to use one of those, perhaps combining the Auto and Off modes by
powering the relay through the ignition (ignition on - Auto, ignition off -
Off) and using the switch to force the fan on (also only when the ignition is
on so that I don't create an ignition bypass switch..). I'm a software guy so
I'm a  bit out of my depth here..
