Is there power already to the overhead switches? Which way is off, forward or back? Thanks

They have power. You have to wire the switches individually to the corresponding wires under the hood. The switch lights up when it is “ON”.
Then from the hood there are also other wires you can tie in to for sending power elsewhere. There’s a couple more behind the glovebox that will send it behind the passenger rear panel or (I believe) up to the roof. I’m certain the diagram is on the forum somewhere. On the internet for sure (where do you think I found the info? Definitely not from my knowledge on the Ford Bronco

funny-I literally just went on a little rant to Mrs about people saying “read the owners manual” in regards to BMS. “I changed the battery. Why would I look in the owners manual for directions on how to change the Fkn battery? It’s a battery. But now it’s gotta be complicated. And BMS? That used to mean you’re going to enjoy the surprise I left in the toilet bowl next time you clean my bathroom. How would I know that exists and search for it on the search I’m not going to do on how to change the battery? Fahk I hate everything. Oh! Coffee kicking in. Gonna use your toilet since it’s the closest”or in the manufacturer-written owner's manual of that shiny $50K toy...which is online for sure...

If you go on the 12” display in the vehicle and find the digital owners manual you will find the AUX wire color coding. I believe you just search “AUX” and it comes up.or in the manufacturer-written owner's manual of that shiny $50K toy...which is online for sure...

I think switch 1 is 30 amp, switch 2 is 15, the rest are 10... let's you have flexibility with whatever your hooking up.
Yes the overhead Aux switches already have power that are run through relays at the under-hood fuse/distribution box. The switches have different amperage ratings so be sure to match that to what you are hooking up or you can use your own relay to reach a higher load rating if you wish. The wires for each individual switch are located under the hood between the brake reservoir and the fender. At the same location there are wires that you can connect to that Ford has run to several key locations of the vehicle or you can simply tie your devices power wire directly to the switch wire. The switches light up when they are in the on position which is pushed toward the windshield .
The aux switches are on when pushed forward, and off when pulled back to vertical.
Here are the Amp ratings and wire colors (2023 non-Raptor)
