rewiring stock foglights
 

i still have working stock GT fog lights. i also have the common problem of the headlights flickering off after the fogs have been on for about 15-25 minutes. i've been reading that the stock wiring is garbage as all 4 lights feed of the same wire and i believe it gets too hot and kills the headlights. i've read many fixes for this problem but everyone seems to do it a different way. so...what's the easiest and best way to wire my fogs so i can use them safely and maybe even use them independently? please as detailed as possible, thanks

Corral I believe has an illustrated how-to in the tech section writtem by Chris Ihara.

It's not the wiring, overloading the stock switch is the problem. Here is a schematic of the "fix" if that helps. I put my relay in the dash behind the light switches.

I tried to attach a gif and a jpg schematic but the site said they were "invalid" file types - even thougyh they were not - sorry...

tmoss- thanks for the info, i had the same problem with uploading "valid" file types yesterday. please email me the files if you can, thanks.

Done, now edit out that email address so that robot spiders don't pick it up and send you a ton of junk mail.

cool thanks tmoss. in chris' article on corral, he said to put an a fuse holder between the new relay and the battery but failed to mention what size fuse is appropriate. according to the diagram you sent me, it look like a 15 amp fuse. thats what i'll be using so correct me if i'm wrong, thanks

That's what I used 4 years ago and no problems to date.

You are going to be very satisfied with the look and proper operation. I can't tell you how many comments I get with just the fogs and parking lamps on.
