My dealer did it for me when I installed the OEM fogs....I didn't ask, the guy just did it...

I'm sure you could do it by wiring it up, but it is definitely easier for the dealer to set it on the PCM.

I have talked to many dealerships around the Atlanta Ga area and all of them say they will but they dont know if its gonna work b/c they havent done one before and they would still charge me $100 even if it doesnt work. Does anyone know the step by step process the dealership people can take so they do it right or is there anyone on this forum that works for dodge around the Atlanta area?

They are all idiots!!!

Using Starscan tool:
1. Disable Fog light (COMPLETELY)
2. Re-enable fogs
a. It will ask which country, choose EXPORT

Hammer, how did you connect the wires to the bottom of the relays?

I just wrapped the wire end and used a small flat screwdriver to push it down with the relay. Always meant to take it out and do a better job, solder or something. Never got a round tuit...

Hammer, so all that does is keep the fogs from cutting out when you hit the brights? Any particular gauge wire to use there or did you just pull a piece and use it? Any minimum gauge to stay away from?
