2002 4.7L 4x4 Durango aftermarket foglights
Hello, this is going to be my first post and i wanted to know if anyone has ever installed after market fog lights for the 2002 model. I did some research but i couldnt find any. So first of all i have aftermarket fog lights installed and today i was installing my subs. There was this switch that went with the fog lgihts and i just disconnected the wires not knowing what wires belong to where. So after installing my subs i was putting back the wiring harness for my headlights and my vent system and when i came across the wires for my fog lights i didnt know which wire went to what, so i kind of guessed where the wires went to (dumb, i know) and next thing you know the positive (red) wire started burning/smoking.
So my question to you is, how would i rewire my fog lights?

you need to know how to use a multi-meter and figure out which wire goes where and then hook it up accordingly, without seeing the setup i co uldnt tell you how it was connected, it should have been done through a relay where the switch simply energizes the relay but that doesnt mean it was wired correctly.

you don't need to buy a harness, you need to buy a multi-meter and a test light and learn how to use them. if you dont own those and/or know how to use them you should probally avoid doing your own electrical. you dont really need either tools for simple things(foglight instals) but you need to be able to figure out what wires do not just randomly connect them together.

I see where you're coming from monkey. The red wire was zip tied to the ground wire and i must have hooked the ground wire that had contact with the positive wire causing the positive to fry. So, what i am guessing is that both the negative and positive wire are gone, because when i unhooked everything from that switch and put my negative back on my battery it will still burn. Meaning if i hook it back up to the battery it would still burn no with no way for me to test the wires with a multi-meter.
