    I have a 2010 tacoma offroad TRD. with the fog light mod.
    it have tested for ground at the relay socket with factory light switch actuated.
    continuity comes in at 1.3 ohms.
    but when I turn the lights on the continuity changes to 44 ohms.
    I'm a bit perplexed
    thanks

    Do you have power (and ground) at the sockets?

    First, you're going to like them! Second, did you try switching polarity? LEDs are polarity sensitive.
