How to make foglight an independent unit?
How to make foglight an independent unit?
I don't like nissan foglight set up.....i just want the foglight works on its own. i can turn it on or off with high beam. Could anybody tells me how to work it out? thx a lot
it's a 5 minute job. you can rewire the fogs to work without the headlights. HOUSECOR has a nice write-up with pics and good detail. (its a matter of cutting the yellow wire with 2 sivler stripes and tapping it into your parking lights)

Here is a link to wire the fogs to stay on with the high beams.

Can you do both rewires. In other words can the fog be tied into the parking lights and also stay on when the highbeams are switched on?

You need to strip the insulator from the end of the wire so you can insert and crimp it in to an inline or butt connector. You then take another piece of wire strip one end and crimp in the other end of the connector and take that to a constant ground .
I think he has you do this because once the high beams are swithced the fogs lose ground, meaning the circuit is open or shorted and the fogs won't light.
Hope this answers your question

Look at the picture again on step#4 it should clarify things for you

i did it without connector...i got the basic idea of it..i just twist all the wires together..lol i need to get a connector tomorrow... now it works..just need to make it more safe and prevent the wires lose connection of eacch other. thx for all the help....Igor's foglight mod is the next mod i'm going to do...
I Just Did That. Who Drives Around With Your Parking Lights On And Fogs? You Can't Even Have Them On With The High Beams
I'm Gonna Jump It To A Seperate Circuit I Think So It Has Full Power 24/7 At The Flip Of A Switch. Any Ideas On That One?

i drive with fog/parking on when there's rain and light fog at day time. i don't want to turn the headlight on all the time. you can do Igor's mod too. I'll do it in 2 days..i'm lazy....
