    so i installed my fog lights yesterday, my truck was pre wired for them and i hook them up got a relay and hooked up the switch and they work fine, but now when i turn on my head light the indicator dose not show up on the console any more and my console lights are always on regardless if the lights are on or off

    anyone have any ideas what may have happened

    Sounds like your switch or relay might be powering your console lights rather than the other way around.
