I believe there's a $50 module you have to buy to get this working. It has to do with the fact that you're using the stalk rotator switches and you need to come in through circuitry, and not just wires. I stumbled across this item on the forum, but I can't confirm if it 100% works on the 07 Max. I'd love to hear from those that have used it.

I'd rather find a way to do it without having to go through all that trouble, but I don't know that there is.

Oh wait...here's something:

Not sure of the validity, but it's there without the module...

It doesn't look that easy, but with the writeup, it might be doable...

I actually worked with Kevin from KP to get this rolling for the 6th gen (all years 04-08) I got him a test car and he figured out all the wiring. I then got a module and installed it myself. It was a bit labor intensive but it you can follow directions and splice wires it's pretty straight forward. Detailed write up (which I used for my install)
http://kptechnologies.com/forums/vie...hp?f=30&t=1094

Result: fogs on using the stock switch, no headlights/running lights

Would it be okay if I would just install a separate dedicated fog light switch to make the fog lights work without the headlights?
