Any Electronics engineers on here?
 
If my Dad was still around I would have asked him... but;

I need to build a circuit where a push button switch is in the "On position" but cuts power to an output feed.....

A switchable input on the EDFC Active Pro, when Off puts the unit into G Activated mode, when On switches to your preset setting. What I want is a button when On, turns the input to the EDFC controller "Off"

I'm sure it would be simple with a relay or a simple MOSFET driven circuit, but I'm not sure how.

I need the switch to be on because I the switch goes where the S button would go on a manual, mine is an auto and I want the Z logo to illuminate when the EDFC is in G sensors auto mode

If you will get a double-throw switch, when the switch is in the On position you will have both NO and NC contacts. Search for "SPDT".

Is the button/switch momentary or maintained? If it's maintained what you want to do is really easy by either the route SouthArk said or by just using a standard relay. If your button/switch is momentary this gets more complicated in terms of the needed circuit to accomplish what you want.

Maintained. Probably going to use an S switch (Syncro Rev)

I don’t understand the acronyms NO, NC or SPDT

Normally open. Normally closed circuits. Single pole double throw.
