yes i know... this should sound normal.... 
but ever since i got my car, whenever i would turn on or off my fogs, by that fog light switch, they would dim... not go out, but dim, like i put them on a lower setting...
now they turn on and off... i don't get it. I mean it's great and all... but what hapenned???
it all start about a month ago, every once and a while when i would place with the fog switch, it would sometimes make the fogs go off instead of on a lower setting...
anywho, if anyone has ever encountered this, i'd love to hear what happenned
hehe

I'm assuming you're referring to factory fog lights? The dimming doesn't sound right. How would you turn them off before; turn the key off? The factory switch on the stalk opens or closes a switch to ground. Depending on the posistion of this switch, the fog light relay either had a ground and would energize, or it didn't have a ground and would not energize. Your switch should be on/off only. If it works any other way, something is up w/ your wiring.

if i used the fog switch it would only dim.... so very odd... It all works now.... so confusing...
like you said, i must have some wiring problem or something...
