fog lights help
i installed my fog lights and they worked fine for a bout a week and then it stopped working. they are opta 2060 and well here is the basic diagram
i hooked everything up. just like that but i put the remot wire directly to my battery. So it worked like that for a week. but now it doesn't. i checked the relays'a nd they're good . i checked the fuse and that's good. So that's not it. but i think it's the switch cuz. when i turn it on the light on the switch do not turn on. any help thanks
or if any one can. help me find a replacement switch that would be great.(the switch has two buttons. one for the foglight and the other for another little blue bulb inside the fog light casing. and there are only 3 wires for the switch. i can't find Opta online. anyone familiar with this co.

well i dont know if its your switch or not but if you're looking for a new switch, i know that pilot makes one similar to the one you're describing cuz my friend has the same fogs. just buy it at your local auto parts store.

could be:
the switch
the power wire to te switch
the ground wire to the switch
(if the wire from the switch to the relay were broken, the light in the switch would still come on)

none of you rrelays click when you push the button ? mmm if none of the relays click check all your powers and grounds again ... then check at the relays check at pin 85 and 86, the 2 side pins they are the trigger wires for the relay .. if you are getting ground and 12v when the switch has been triggered.. then the fogs are probably blown .. but just check and double check ..
