My Foglights are Turning On

Here’s the story,

So I recently just bought these new Baja Design Squadron Sports, they been on there for about a week. I hardly use them now during the night because they’re crazy bright.

I haven’t driven the truck within 2 or days and I just started driving it today, and when I turned on the fog lights, there was no output from the fog lights. My cluster/dash was showing the fog light icon. But when I went to go look at it, the fog lights weren’t on. I went as far as testing my old set of factory fog lights and the fog lights weren’t turning on either.

I went to go check the fuse box inside the engine bay, and there’s two “FOG FR” one in a fuse and one in a relay. I checked the fuse one first and it was perfectly fine but I still went to go buy a new fuse. Threw the new fuse in and it still wouldn’t kick on. I took out the relay and tested it to with one of my buddy’s battery and the relay was clicking, so I know the relays fine.

to be honest I’m at a stuck position right now and I don’t know what the cause is.

thanks in advance for any help

 

Did you blow an in-line fuse?

 

Strange been running my BD squadron SAE fogs going on 2 years easy install no issues to speak of. Really plug and play, did you do anything else while installing these?

 

Show us the install.

 

If you have a multimeter, ground the meter then check to see if you're getting power to the pigtail at the lights.
If you're getting power, it's the ground. If you're not getting power, it's either a fuse or a broken power wire somewhere.

If you don't have a multimeter, get one.


When you did the install, you just unplugged the factory lights, and plugged in the new ones? No fiddling with the relays or wiring?

 

Someone on another thread said always start trouble shooting where a human last worked. It sounds like a bad connection, like everyone else has said, get a meter and start checking where you have power and work on from there. Good luck and keep us posted.

 

These fogs lights are basically plug n play. I checked the wiring and connection and it seems fine. So I’m gonna go get a new relay right now and test the new relay if it works then it must’ve been a blown relay.

 

You're "seems" is very promising. Did you know that the fog fuse where you added the tap is ALWAYS juiced?
