Hella Fog Lamps -Wiring Problem

[Jeremy Parkhouse]

I know this has been discussed many, many times before........and I've already managed to wire in a work lamp + 4x roof rack Hellas using LR switches and relays.....working great.........but I can't get the correct 12v tap for pin 1 on the bumper fogs.

I was banking on tapping into the pink/black wire of the old fog light switch loom near the connector, left over when I used a make /break switch rather than momentary for the Hella fogs. Didn't work!!

I've checked the wiring by tapping into the side lights (temporary measure) for power and my fogs come on, but I want them only to operate on dipped headlights.

Can someone confirm the best place to tap (physically) and the correct colour of the wire I am looking for!

I know this subject gets boring but this is my last lighting job then I'm on to something else!!

Cheers for now

What year is your truck? I can make you a copy of the last RAVE disc for $5+sh and you'll have ALL that info. $6 if you want it to look original.

Steve,

Great idea I could do with the RAVE disc, I heard of them but never seen them out here. It's a 2002 Model. Do you have a Paypall account that I could use to send you payment?

Cheers

Jeremy
