Bought a set of these years ago got them mounted but never got them working after fixing old fog light wiring.
A few questions ; Looking along left to right with the fuse board mounted which is the relay for these ? On a USA spec car what function of the light triggers the relay....I'am thinking low beam but not sure ? ,the compliance police in my country the rule used to be activation only on high beam from the light switch,and the driving lights need to be controlled via a switch which my car obviously has. Have done research and found some helpful info but still just trying to clear up a few things. TIA ,as really need to sort as I'am going to go nuts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

Rich yep thought that was the way,cheers. I have researched a bit more and think its an earth issue as I believe it is wrong ,if my relay is ok I reckon I should have control from the high beam as my car was imported to my country and would have to be complied that way. Cheers will report back. |
