Default Lights on 05 RAM

When I drive at night I run my headlights and fog lights. When I turn on the brights my fog lights turn off. Is that normal?

Yes this is normal. They make something called a "Brite Box" if you want to run your fog and highbeams. I think it cost a lil over $100.

ok...Well should have checked the DIY first. HammerZ71 has a DIY on how to make it happen. Just take a piece of electrical wire and run it from one fuse to the other! SIMPLE better than droppin a 100 bucks....

This mod works great, the only thing I don't like about it is that you are stuck with your fogs on whenever your parking lights are on.
