SPECIAL BI-COLOR RECTANGULAR LED

Using a center off momentary DPDT toggle to energize a motor remotely (screwdriver antenna) I placed one of these BI-color Leds just after my switch. 2 outside leads to each motor lead, the center through a 1K ohm resister to ground for a 12V system. whichever motor lead becomes +12V the led lights Red or Green. FYI...shortest outside lead is GREEN, Longer outside leg is RED, Middle leg, common to limiting resistor (1K ohm @12V gave me 29.5ma current)
