I Need Help Wiring Lights - Please

[kshoblom]

I've read a lot about how to make the fogs come on with the highbeams on the NBS Silverados.... BUT what I have now are two after market driving lights that come on with the fogs so that I get the dim fogs lighting the side of the road while the driving lights reach outward. I would very much so like for them to work when the high beams are on as well, but don't feel comfortable soldering fuses, etc. The after market lights are powered by a fused line to the hot lead off the truck's fuse box. There is a relay that is grounded and then connected to the fog lights power supply which then turns on the after market lights. So what I need help with is this: If I were to tap into the high beam power supply with the same line that comes from the relay and into the fog supply, would that just turn on the one high beam I tapped into or could I use a resistor or something to make it so that when the fogs are on so are the after markets, then when the high beams come on (which automatically makes the fogs turn off) it would keep the after market lights on? OR am over complicating this and there's an easier way.... Thanks for any help out there, it's much appreciated!

Yeah, I saw some similar kits, but wasn't sure how that'd work or if I needed to be carefull since the driving lights are already run off a similar relay set up...

I put one like those on mine. It works great. But I can't rember where from.

this prolly doesn't have anything to do with your question but it is a great aid in understanding relays and circuit flow.

Thanks for the quick replies! I went with the $5 Radio Shack version of the headlight kits... Got a fused hot wire going from the fuse box post to two different relays. Each relay is grounded and has the positive going right to the driving lights. One relay is hooked into the fog light positive and the other into the highbeam positive. When the highs come on it shuts the fogs off, but keeps the driving lights: perfect!
