Hello, I have a switch that is dpdt and is on/on/on.
The use I want to give it is switch between a 10uf capacitor, a 1uf capacitor, and no capacitor but still having the trace linked. is it possible with this switch?
you mean a toggle switch right? what do you mean with trace? (the wire?)
i think it should be possible, if all "on" positions work seperately and you just dont connect wires to the third "on" position.
with this one, your case should work:

Not that one. I have an on/on/on. There must be signal going through the part of the circuit. When there's no CAP, there should be a wire.
you have something right this?

there you see the internal connection (theres a nice image)
so what you want to do should be possible without problems!
if im not wrong this should work out for you :)

this one enables:
-) c1
-) c2
-) direct connection
I'm not sure with an on on on it would work like that.That would be the standard on/on, right?
an on-on works only for 2 positions
that wiring should be correct, since the switching in the middle position is different (thats the wire across the switch)
so here how the switch works, i think my wiring should do what you wanna do

you have to measure first, which pins connect when the switch is in the middle position ;)
these two have to be connected with a straight wire ;)
