Sorry for the title. I was writing: illuminated switch and accent LED. ?!?!

It mainly depends on how you want the LEDs in those switches to behave. Typically, one lights up when you pull the kill key. That one is connected to the special 3.3V pad. Most have the other one light up once the saber is on, and that one is connected to one of the 4 accent pads.

Excellent, thanks! You are indispensable!
So if I use the 3.3V pad I will have to use a resistance, right? Can you tell me how? I have an antivandal red ring switch.
While the second switch is not necessary because the pads of the accent LEDs have already the resistance, right?

You will need resistors for both, depending on which color LED is on the accent pad. The PC manual covers where resistors go. Here is a link to the thread on resistors (and how to calculate which one you need):
