Quick question .. as I know its usually the case with the installing of them - are your driving lights on (as well as the switch for them) ? Without the driving lights on, due to the default wiring, they wouldn't work.

Or maybe the switch you got is broken

My $0.02 on the matter, as I've been researching this diy/install in preparation for my own

Did you make sure the fog light harness was probperly grounded? I believe if its anything like mine there is a ground terminal on the fog light harness that needs to be hooked up.

Also, I agree with the previous post. Make sure your lights are on and at low beam I think.

Tray Handa-Accessories.com, they have the install instructions for the fogs.

also make sure you have a fuse in the fuse box for the fogs...if the car didn't come with them from the factory, there won't be a fuse there.

Did you plug both harness's into the fuse box? There's two.

well do you mean the fuse box under the steering wheel.. right now i have (1)4 pin and (1) 1 pin connected to the fuse box... the other harness i have is one with like (3) 1 pin connectors and on the end (1) 4 pin connector and (1) 1 pin connecter (blue/red wire) I connected that 1 pin (blue/red wire) to the harness connected to the fuse box.. but theres still one 4 pin connector that i dont know where to connect... Is it in the middle where there is a 4 pin connection open on the fuse box (above and to the right of where the other connectors are plugged into?) ahh lol

could it be for your switch?

The 4 pin, its a female right? If it is, thats just for extra accessorys. Don't worry about that. How about the relay, did you remember to connect that?

I had my oem style fogs installed a couple weeks ago. Mine didnt work initially cuz there was a short in my switch and every time the light is turned on the fuse blows. I got a new switch from the seller and it works now. So check your fuse and the switch.

Well there is a fuse on the wire. You can check that.

well i finally got them working.. they look really sweet with the Yellow yellow bulbs in there... what i did was wire them straight into my parking lights.. which is pretty cool because now i dont have a switch for them and they go on with the parking light... and i also dont have any wires running through the firewall... i only used the fog light harness and ditched the other 2.

he connected the power to the parking light power so they come on with the parking lights. he didn't physically put them in the parking lights.
