Hey all,

I installed my fogs a while ago...but I have forgotten to turn them off a few times. Because of this I've been left stranded with a dead battery. I've even replace my battery once because it damaged my battery. My question is...how can I wired the power source of my fog lights to the headlights so that both turn off and on at the same time. Thanks alot all...you've been much help to me.

Sorry to say but you should have bought the factory fogs for your max it is prewired so no pain installing it works with your headlamps and it also comes with the switch to turn it on and off. As for now I would suggest you wire those fogs you have to the park lights so you can turn them off and on with the light switch.

Same happened to me with my 3rd gen

run a wire from the positive lead of your parking lamp, or your clearance light to the fogs and don't forget to ground the fogs.

blew out fuse

hey all,

what I did was I ran the positive wire from my clearance light ( the light which flashes when you signal) and it blew the fuse when I turned it on. So I tried it again and it blew the turn signal fuse again. I am not sure why it does that. Also,

Are you using a 30amp relay with an inline fuse?
