Is it a light brown wire. If so, then what isn't operating that should be.

Should be some manuals somewhere in the tech library you should read through. That will help you know what the switch turns on and in what position.

Exactly.  The wiring diagram in the service manual and/or the text in the service manual almost always includes a "switch legend" chart.
