The 2007 fog lights will only turn on if the head lights are on. Is there a way to change this to allow the fogs to turn on without headlights?


Thanks.

yes 1 could have a shop piggy back a power circuit into the fog lights with a seperate switch/fuse/wire system

other wise you would have to rework the switch set up its self.

Thanks anyway but what I am looking for is the procedure to utilize the existing fog light switch on the column and allow the fogs to work even if the headlights are off. There must be a way to do this.

the fog light circuit sourse triger voltage is powered by the headlights.

if you could isolate it and run a new fused power sourse to it you should be able to bypass it.

suppling that new fuse power from the run side of the ignition switch
would help insure that you dont leave them on to drain the batt when
the car is off.

i will see what i can do to pull up some wire diagrams to verify this.

<DIV>Hey "AcuraLegend", do you have wiring diagrams for the TSX? I was hoping that a "bridge" in the fuse box between the appropriate circuits would allow the fogs to work independently. </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks.</DIV>
