Howdy, howdy,
I have an electric fan on my radiator and my transmission cooler.  I would like to wire it up to an ignition hot lead that has a lighted toggle switch that lights up when the fans are shut off for deep mud/water holes.  Anyone know of a toggle switch that would do this?  I am having trouble finding one.  Or can this only be accomplished with a relay or something else in combination with the toggle switch if someone could steer me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks, take care, Rick.

You didn't mention any specifics, such as Amp draw.  But look this over :  http://tinyurl.com/azo5zo8

perhaps a float switch from a sump pump mounted under your jeep.... to control one or more relays to interrupt the power to those circuits.  

it could also control a relay to drive a warning ;amp...    or     you could install a lamp ... wired
from ign1  to the power  side of those circuits.. if the power is off. the lamp will glow... as one side has no voltage and is still connected to ground through the controlled item... the other side hot on ign i...   you will probably need  diode in that lamp circuit..
