I am new here just bought my first durango and starting on my mods, I would like to find out how to keep my fog lights on when the high beams are on. tried a search but found nothing, truck is a 2000 durango 4x4 4.7l. thanks!

 

The relay would need to stay energized when the high beams are on. I haven't looked into this, but I want to since I added the 3000k HID's. This would/may be simpler if it weren't for the CTM. When I move in October I will add it to the to-do list.

 

i have heard of people doing this by putting a jumper (paperclip or similar) btwn two terminals in the PDC, but idr which points, and i wouldnt recommend it (definitely not with a jumper)

also keep in mind in some states it is illegal to have the fog lights on with the high beams, which is why they go off when you put the highs on. so if you do make this change it COULD (it may no where you live) net you equipment violation tickets

 

I have done this on my Ram, don't know no relay/fuse setup on no Durango, but if your diagram shows the high beams and the fogs have there own relay, then jumpering power on the high beam to switch on the fog will do it.

 

We did this mod on the Mazda 3's, but there was a problem with the wire overheating. We didn't care much since they were under warranty. I never looked into what the cause was. I may look into this like I said.

 

The relay is different on each year, but it was completed. I think the Dakota section in 2nd gen has it in their DIY, but remember it is different in each year.

 

OR, you can get a set of HIDs and just use the lows. My HID lows are way brighter than many hi beams out there. LOL!

 

You should also scratch off the non-reflective paint at the tip of the lights. This will project more light so your fog lights are a more efficient system. I have done this and i am very happy about it.

 

I have hids in the headlights and fog lights now, in my old ranger i had the fog lights modded so when you turned high beams on the fogs still worked, i have looked at the wiring diagrams for the headlights and fog lights but just have not sat down long enough to study the diagrams yet and figure it out.
