    Bought some new fog lights for my truck Cali raised with the harness that’s supposed to be plug and play but I set them all up and put them with plugged them in and they don’t work!
    Please help don’t know why they don’t work and I’m pretty upset

    @CaliRaisedLed, please chime in. Ive noticed some folks have issues with the harnesses being incorrectly wired from the factory.

    the wires usually are red to red black to black
    But if you didn’t have to attach harness to pods then maybe something else
    Let’s see if @CaliRaisedLed chimes in

    When I got mine they had just started offering the harness, so I received the harness after I received the fogs, so I had to solder the harness to the fogs

    When you get tired of the harness and decide to use a CH4x4 switch, a relay, and your own wiring.....

    Ah. I was thinking the P&P harness that uses the black push button switch and is P&P by hooking it to the battery and pods.

    Ya they look like this6449AAD2-6055-4BD8-98AC-A4E863EACF45.jpg ,but when I got mine they had just started offering them. I had to solder the wires to the fogs. I soldered red to red and they didn’t work so I swapped them black to red. Bingo others were having the same issue.
