Can you wire fogs to stay on with Highbeams for '05?!

Hmmm...so once you turn the headlights on the fogs come on? That's a problem. Cops like to ticket for that around here.
I wonder if I can get the dealer here to turn the feature on for me..I do afterall plow their parking lot so I'm somewhat tight with the owner.

Actually, in Canada you should have no problem. I'm surprised your fogs don't stay on with the high beams as your truck should have shipped with the "international" settings...

Close but incorrrect. The fogs would come on when you turn on the parking lights, not the head lights.

Oh...beautiful.
I'm not sure about your info with Canada being able to do this. Almost every vehicle I've been in with fog lights will shut off with highbeams. However I will call the dealer to look into this further.

Even though on the StarScan tool it's called "International Settings", I've often heard Chrysler techs call it "Canadian Export Settings", so you shouldn't have a problem. There have been more than a couple members on here from Canada who have posted in these threads "what the hell are you guys talking about? My fogs stay on with my high beams" over the years...

You MUST have a starscan tool to change any firmware settings on a Chrysler vehicle.

My fogs turn off on High Beam and I'm in Canada and the truck is a Canadian spec. Maybe he is getting confused with the DRL's (Daytime running lights)?
