oh yeh i checked that already i thought it was the fuse at first it wasnt so all else fails is the relay itself wouls that one work

It could be that. Maybe check out the switch next.

Maybe check out the control side on the parking light circuit at the fog relay. Usually you can verify a ground signal sent out to the relay when you turn your parking lights on. Use a polarity test light to check that.

Check the fuse. stick you head under the drivers side dash and theres the fuse box there. its the 15 and its blue

ok ima check those right now

SCIONOSIS · 03-04-2011, 08:11 PM

Is this a factory or aftermarket foglight kit?
I assuming aftermarket since you got it from an auto parts store. Those kits they sell commonly have in-line fuses in the harness.

NYcarbonTC · 03-08-2011, 10:49 PM

yeh its aftermarket
