Adding Fogs-Need Help Wiring Factory Fog Light Switch

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, newbie here.

I am in the process of adding fog lights to my 2006 fusion SE I-4. I bought OEM fog lights, black inserts, a relay, some wire to make my own wiring harness, and a replacement OEM headlight/fog light switch.

 

My problem is that I cannot seem to wire the new fog light switch, so that it will trigger a relay.

 

Looking at my factory wiring manual, there are 3 wires going to the fog switch:

 

-brown/white: fog indicator

-grey/violet: fog lamps on

-black/violet: ground

 

I disconnected the factory harness from the switch, as there is no power going to the fog portion of the switch.

 

I connected a 12v wire from the fusebox,to the "BN-WH" pin#7 on the switch (fog indicator LED).

 

Also wired the "BK-VT" pin#1, to ground.

 

The orange fog indicator LED works fine when the fog switch is on

 

The "GY-VT" fog lamps on (pin#7), measures 12v with the switch OFF, but only measures about 25mA. This pin will not trigger the relay.

 

How can I wire this switch to trigger a relay??

 

Has anyone here added fog lights (to a fusion that did not come with factory fogs) using a new factory fog light switch?

 

I have included pics from the factory wiring manual.

 

Thanks in advance for any help,

Stew182.
