![]() Hi all,
Now that the IVA requires that the fog light can only be operated on dip or main beam. Is it a simple case of moving 1 wire? Supply to the fuse from the light switch to the output side of the dip relay? Not all that swept up on electrickery. |

![]() I am no guru on electrical systems but yes Daz .
Guess the easiest way to do it is to take the 12v + feed for the fog switch from the dipped beam 12v + feed .... Somewhere near the steering wheel to help keep the cables tidy !! Another option woud be to take the feed from the light switch .... The one with the Off / Side lights / Headlights That way you should have power to the foglight on both dipped & main beam ![]() Like I say, no expert .... I just tend to bumble along & cross each bridge as I come to it ![]() ![]() ![]()

![]() Have a word with Mark on the forum Daz,
He has recently rewired his and wasn't as straight forward as we thought it would be. Again i'm no electrical guru but he found good solution at the end of a lot of head scratching. AndyH

![]() Dipped & main beam relays are switch earth at the light switch, not switched +12v.
When I altered the wiring for mine I did it by inserting a relay. I put the relay in the power feed to the foglight switch, with the earth for the relay coil being switched through the light switch. That way the power to the light was still switched on with the side lights, but the relay wouldn't become live until the lightswitch was was in the main on position. I'll see if I can find a diagram to explain what I mean, and post it up. Cheers Gus |
