[angelkl27]

hey guys

I recently put fog lights into my commodore, the wiring was there i plugged them in but they arent working, i dont know what the next step should be? do i have to get a switch or is it just a missing fuse ? are they suppose to turn on automatically with the parkers?

would appreciate your help thnx

you will need as headlight switch for the foglights like this

COMMODORE VY VZ SS CALAIS INTERIOR HEADLIGHT FOG SWITCH (eBay item 300496625315 end time 24-Mar-11 14:09:28 AEDST) : Cars, Bikes, Boats

the switch pulls back to turn the fogs on. you might also need to check if there is a spot in the fusebox for a fuse and relay

Like said /\/\/\......a fog light enabled head light switch is needed. You will also need a relay to go in the blank hole in the relay box near the drivers side strut tower.

could you just set it up to your own seperate switch?

[Nic92]

make sure you check your grounding, my friend installed my fog lights then they stopped working the next day and all we did was changed the ground, mine have a seperate switch so i can turn mine on when ever i want

[Braydenreid]

im gonna use a sepertate switch when i do mine

[angelkl27]

thnx guys for the help, didnt think they would be $77 !! -__- lol il probably check at wreckers see if they have them for cheaper

[a1k3m1]

yeah ya could do that, or as others have said in making your own switch, its cheaper and better i think, as i did the same in my VY..

Why use a seperate switch? Looks ugly and the only limitation of the factory switch is that you must have the parkers on to turn the fogs on (which is the law!).

[Braydenreid]

you could just hide thie switch..

[danieLOL]

if you've got the wiring all there why would u use a seperate switch? just go to the wreckers and get one im sure they'll sell u one between 20-50 dollars

[Kingston_99]

its only $77.... are you guys that tight LOL

WHATS!? about the law thing.. my fog lights when i brought them from the shop came with a a switch.. i stuck uner my head lights switch and i can turn them on when the car is off.. i dont need parkers on or anything, already been pulled over by the cops and they checked my car out, but they didnt say anything about the fog lights?
