#1: front fogs help !!! Author: rudymason, Location: walesPosted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 8:39 am ---- hey just installed the new sports bumper i bought , but just out of curiosity is there anything else i need to do other than plug them in as they dont seem to be working, the wires for them were already there as blanks and fit perfectly onto the rear of the fogs so im more or less 100% sure theyre rght, just wondering if there's anything else i need to do to get them working again
any help would be awesome!!
Cheers!

Does your current light switches have the option for front and rear fogs? Or just rear?
#3: Re: front fogs help !!! Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 8:41 am ---- BSI needs options need editing, and you need a new fusebox more than likely
#4: Re: front fogs help !!! Author: smiddies, Location: BrightonPosted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 8:43 am ---- You could try connecting them to the rear fog, thats what im thinking to do to mine!

but yeah so whats the downside to just wiring it straight to your rear fog light and how can it be done ??
also if thats the case with the fusebox can i just get one from a gti and swap them over or is there aspace in mine which requires a certain fuse??
And will i deffinately need a bsi update ?? and how much is it??
#8: Re: front fogs help !!! Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 8:47 am ---- How do you want them to work?
With fog lights and main beam?
#9: Re: front fogs help !!! Author: rudymason, Location: walesPosted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 8:49 am ---- errm im not entirely sure to be honest!! lol if thats the most common function of them then aye i guess lol!!
is there any other combo ?
#10: Re: front fogs help !!! Author: rudymason, Location: walesPosted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 8:50 am ---- also i wouldve thought that been as the wires to fit them were already there that the rest would be simple?? strange!!
#11: Re: front fogs help !!! Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 8:55 am ---- Two 30amp 4 pin relays
Relay one
power = +12v from fuse box
earth = chassis earth
output = both fogs
switch = feed from rear fog
Realy two
power = +12v from fuse box
earth = chassis earth
output = both fogs
switch = feed from main beam
