Switch light wiring?

Hi, how would I go about getting the light to come on on this type of switch when the circuit is completed? I'd have thought the light would have come on when the it was a complete circuit, obviously I'm wrong and theres 3 pins.

thanks,

so it doesn't need another wire connecting to it?

Cheers.

Still can't get the switch to light up! I can get the switch to work but can't get it to light up!

Pin 1 is earth I'm sure. As there was a black wire coming from that pin before. The other 2 pins had white wires on.

It's a fan switch for my car, so 12v but I stole the switch from a 240v appliance (would that matter?)
