Pontiac Grand Am Terminal Problem

I would like to use the factory fog light switch to power new fog lights. I have wired the new lights to a separate switch but now want to utilize the dash switch. The OEM switch has an indicator light that illuminates when on. The terminals are mark A,B &C. I will be cutting an taping off the wires leading to the switch and just using the switch as a single pole on/off switch. If I connect my line(12v) to "A" and my load(lights) to "B" the lights work fine. Do I connect "C" to ground to get the indicator light to light when on or do I jump a fused 12v to that terminal?
