well i did a search and didnt really find much, i read on another forum how to mod the headlight switch mechanism so that you can have your fog lights on without the headlights having to be on, but it didnt work.:dunno: my fog light switch pulls out with the parking lights on, however the fogs wont turn on unless the headlights are on.. does anyone know the way to do this? i seen trucks driving around with just the fogs on, i really wouldnt want to add an extra switch just for the fog lights, im sure theres a trick somewhere, any help is appreciated.. thanks in advance!
This is super easy to do...he spells it out well. This is one of the first mods and still one of my favorite mods I have done to my truck. Of course I did it for a different reason, I wanted the fogs on when the highbeams are too. Country roads out here can get dark as he!!
OK with mod how do you trun your fog lights on by the swith or are they alway on with key Brain is not working to good today. and if you do trun them on with the switch how mine will not come on unless headlight are on:dunno:
I some how managed to get my fog lights to work with the parking lights when I Installed My remote starter, I broke one of the mounting tabs on the light switch, cant tell it mounted up the same, but I can turn the fog lights on with the parking lights:dunno:
I also did this mod, but am not able to run the foglights with the parking lights. For my foglights to turn on, I need the headlights on, or I can't pull the switch out. Did I skip a step in this mod?
huh, that's the way mine is from parking light to off position. not from headlight to parking light position like yours is. You have an 03 6.0, thinks that makes a difference?? IDK Maybe thats something they changed. :shrug:
I didn't have to modify my switch itself, it always operated this way but the lights just didn't come on...
When I pulled the switch out it was the mounting tab closest to the drivers do so the switch is a little loose but nothing big so the knob pulls out and they turn out, Im not gonna recommend just breaking the tabs, because I did it as a freak accident and it worked out well for me but I can promise it will work for everyone.
i saw a guy with them on also! stoped and asked he said he was running automatic?? so i dont know if that is the deal or not? i always run parking lights w/ fog even though i got a ticket:hehe:
