    With no help from Fave book I am asking everyone here. The first two pictures are of the wiring that came with the Foglight switch when I got the truck. I got a new switch and the diagram has different wires. Any clue what wires from the two pictures attach to what wires in the diagram? Thanks again everyone first pic my wires section what needs to be inC289C89A-EEE8-48B0-9DBE-3DF7F9342DA2.jpgBC1D8945-980B-4371-A7E6-9A374652F485.jpg

    Get a wiring diagram and use that to determine which wire is which.

    This and that...
    Depending on the switch you bought, it may not work as it should. I ran into this issue replacing my factory switch with one from Aironboard switch. Due to the factory wiring, I was only able to get it close to what it should do. Do note that the black and white needed to be grounded to the frame not to the switch ground for it to work. Hopefully this will help.

    If you have a volt meter you could test it.
