exact issue is this: with the LED headlight bulb (which are super btw!) in which if i turn on the fog lights the high berms go on, the relay will not leave the low beam on with the fogs on. Also i do have Spokewerks LED fog bulbs.

so what is the fix for this? do i add resistor, or do i change fog light relay??

oh btw here is a picture of the difference between LED(drivers) and the stock incandescent(passenger)

lack of punctuation is a killer sorry,

with the LED headlight bulb installed, if I turn on the fog lights the high beam headlamp comes on. If the lights are on, but the fog lights are off, and I turn on the fog lights, then the LED bulb switches to high beam on its own, so the relay is switching and turning on the LED high beam and it will not go back to low beam pulling the lever, not unless I turn the fog lights off, so I cant run the fog lights and the low beam at the same time, is that more clear?
