Driving lights -operation?

[Kurt Horvath]

Leroy,

I like that kind of talk. Let there be light! Does anybody have any idea why my
fog lights only work when the high beams are on? Turn on the dash switch for the
fog lights, nothing! They only work with the driving lights on high beam.
Recently, I took the headlight switch apart to firm up the contacts, the running
lights were going in and out. I didn't check to see if the fog lights were
connected to the main switch, but there are four wires connected to it. Any help
would be great.

I went to Napa and purchased a set of halogen lights. I installed them using a
relay and a seperate switch. I use them for day recognition lights. That way
none of the other electrical lighting system is on. When I need light at night
as I recently did in a dark campground in the GA mountains I have Ten lights
shining. I hope no one wants to sleep. lol 6 halogen headlights, 2 driving
lights and 2 spot lights. Turn on the landing lights and the world lights up.

You always do it right. I was talking with Marty Haberman a few days ago. He
is rewiring his headlights. Marty and I agreed that the driving lights
should be on their own switch/control.
