HID problem/ stock fog light

I have hid's and when i turn on my low bean, my car thinks the high-beam is on, so the blue high-beam light turns on my gauge.

The problem is that I can't have my fog light turned on because it only turns on only when my car is at low-beam mode, and not high-beam.
I want to be able to turn on my foglight anytime i want, wether headlight is on or not. Do you guys have any idea how i can work the circuit to do this?

I had that problem with my HID's too when I turn on the lights the high beam idicator comes on. I found out that the wiring was wrong. You either have the high beam lead instead of the low bean lead to the relay or both high and low beam leads are hooked up to the relay. You could have a seprate switch to turn on fog lights.

so what did you do to make your foglight to work? I guess I can make a seperate switch for the foglight, or cut the high-beah lead from the relay.
