How To Get Your Fog Lights To Stay On
When Low Beams Aren't On
The
following maybe considered illegal in your state or may void
warranties if you bothered to get them extended. Make sure to disconnect
you battery as a safety precaution.
- Pull the fog light switch
and wires out of the dash board.
- Find the red wire with a
black stripe. This is the trigger power for the fog lights from your low
beam (12 Volt).
- Cut the red wire with
black strip and tape off the end that leads back into the car. Leave the
other piece of the wire untapped. This will be used later.
- Find the red wire with
green stripe. This is the instrument light power (12 Volts).
- Take a quick splice
connector blue color type and connect the red wire with black strip
leading of the switch to the red wire with green, or you can splice the
red wire with the green stripe and connect the red wire with the black
stripe to it. (quick splice is nicer and quicker and easier)
- Once done, reinstall
switch and put dash unit back together.
- As a precaution, check all
lights in car so as not to have shorted out any electronics, turn
signals, parking lights, headlights, and brake lights.
WOW! Now
you're done. Now when your turn you parking lights on the
car fog lights will also be engaged. Also when you headlights are on
the fog lights will work with both low beam and high beam. With fog
lights and high beam combo, this creates a well light environment at
night. Hope this helped out anyone that thinking of doing this.
Note: The new power source is your
interior gauge lights. So if you have the lights on at under 1/4 power
then your fog lights will shut off since the relay will not be getting
enough power. |
