    I don't know how I could screw up something so simple but after installing my raptor lights using the add a fuse in the under hood fuse panel on my 18 double cab sport. The second position on my light switch on the turn signal stalk has nothing. The first position drl works and the 3rd position headlights works except no fog lights. I've checked everything I can think of in the fuse panel but now at a loss of where to check. Thanks in advance from a noob to the forum.

    After checking everything again last night I'm guessing the switch in the turn signal stalk has gone bad. Everything works in other switch positions except fog lights and it's fuse is good. Guess it's time for a dealer visit

    Did you remove the fuse tap, returning it to OEM and then verified stalk function?
    My guesstimate is you have a failed TAIL fuse:

    without it, the fogs do not work.

    That fuse was fine but I got to thinking that I put on a startx remote start 2 days before that but I was sure everything was working. Took 5 minutes to pull the startx remote start off and what do you know everything works again and there's no way to hook it up wrong.
    I can do without the remote start if it's gonna mess stuff up.
