Default Fog lamps + High beam = No More FOGS

Dont remember who posted the thread but i ran a wire from my fog relay to my parking relay and .....VUAHLAH!!! NO MORE FOGS. Im sure its because my Dumb A&@ left the fogs on during the wiring process. YEAH..YEAH.. I KNOW. BUT HOW DO I FIX IT. FUSES ARE GOOD. NEED INFO QUICK! MY RED TURN SIGNALS ARENT AS COOL W/O THE FOGS.

As far as I know, with the factory wiring the fog lights will shut off when the high beams are on. As far as extra wiring, I'm not sure.

Yup, you can run a single wire in your fuse box which will make your fogs stay on all the time, whether your high beams are on or not... I did the mod to my truck when I first bought it. It makes driving at night out in the middle of nowhere very nice.

you re-wired the fog lights so that they stay on with high beams? Can you give me some good detailed instructions on how you did it? Thank you in advance

Bump....I never got an answer on how to wire my fogs so they stay on al the time? How do I wire my factory fogs to stay on when I turn on my highbeams?

You have to run a hot wire from your parking light relay over to the fog light relay. As soon as the parking lights come on, so do the fogs. They then stay on with high and low beams. Did mine and it works great.
