Hi guys,

 

After some confirmation on wiring in my rear fog before I blow up the car, (although that could be a good thing at the moment)!

 

Looking at the link below pin 17&18 are for the rear fog, so I'm thinking I can wire into this and it should work, any thoughts?

 

Now I'm not bothered if the fronts come on to as I only use the fogs when I need to or at the MOT Center, I don't use them just to look cool! I also don't want to drill holes for a new switch, so if I can get either a yes or no on the question or advise on how to do it would be great.

 

Cheers all.

Yes that is what the wiring diagram shows

Awesome, cheers dicky.

Hi,

 

in case you didn't know......

 

 

you need to take the switched power supply and run it back to the rear of the car... (i.e. or they will just be on permanently)

 

you can then earth the new fog lights to any earth back there.

 

have a look at the wire diagram with colour codes (in the service manual) to see which way the supply goes.

I didn't know that mate, not sure I completely follow what you mean either to be honest. Ill have a look I the manual and the car and it should make more sense

Hi,

 

if you use a volt meter (or simple wired bulb) and connect one end to one of the wires for the switch you will be able to determine what side is controlled by the switch.

 

obviously don't unplug the unit.. it might be a bit tight getting a probe in there but you could unplug it, connect the wires up and then plug it back together....

 

dose that make sense?

Sorry if this sounds stupid bu cant you contact the installers and ask them? Failing that I am guessing the wiring goes from the centre console to tbehind the glove box, and either through the wiring looms to the engine bay, or maybe even the passenger door?

 

Failing that would a test voltage of 12 v through the wiring and a temp switch for you MOT?
