Make sure your wire tap is making a good connection :dontknow:

Just in case you over looked this, make sure the foglight button is switched on and the truck key is turned to the "on" position. :top:

i can't believe i've had this truck almost 2 years and just now finally did this. option 3, took me a 5 minutes trip to get connectors, and 10 more to do the mod. easy as pie :top:

 

[AnthonyF]

I am an idiot. I figured it out, it was a "Key on" acc. My bad. lolololol

Does this MOD let the FOG lights be on without the HEADLIGHTS being on? FOG lights on all by themselves with the switch in the truck. Thx

Ok I did this mod a week or so ago and it works great. However I am thinking about changing the way I did it. I currently just have the prong on the relay bent out and I am running a wire to the 10amp fuse (my fog lights flash but that doesn't bother me) - I have read on here about people using the mini add-a-circuit - well i have one of these and I tired to use it originally but when you plug it into the fuse box, it is not a tight fit. On my truck ( I assume all of yours is the same) I have fusses that are smaller than mini fuses. They do not have the prongs coming off the bottom of them - see below, So my question is to all of you, is the add-a-circuit loose in your fuse box also? Do you not think this might cause a short?

 

[Stevenredx]

I've done a couple of the ones with the add a fuse things and don't recall them being loose... :hmmmm2:

 

[joman]

i was going to do this #3 mod...but i didn't because that fuse you use is connected to the fuel injectors pump....which is not good...just a FYI

 

[holddeez08RR]

option #1 works great! thanks :biggrin:

 

[dmbfan73]

did the #2 mod yesterday, 5 minutes tops...works awesome

 

[Takowan]

I just did opt.#2 - simple, fast, works great!

i just did this mod (method#3) , but i used the 12v side of the horn fuse for the power to the bent relay pin instead of the efi 10a fuse.
will i still have the flashing issue?
