I searched for this and didn't find anything and I can't believe I am the first to ask but how can the fog lights be modified to turn on with the park lights and headlights?

This is the first car I have had with fogs lights that come on with the headlights ONLY!

 

mmmmmm not sure, but perhaps C-Best settings depending on your year. Lexus Personalized Settings won't do it. What year is your car?

Built May 2002. A late 2002.

 

Fogs are only programmed to come on with headlights. True for Toyota, Honda and Nissan.

I have done mods for my Acura and Maxima to enable the fogs on with just the park lights. Have not done a Toyota.

For the Acura had to go to the steering wheel and did one tap. For the Maxima it was just a tap in the fuse box in the engine bay. Both fairly simple.

Now we need to figure out the SC. Power source of the fogs must be traced and tapped into Park lights. Any takers? I am sure we have very competent guys around here.

 

I would love to see the fogs on with the DRL (if I can also get the DRL to be "whitier").

It will be neat.

 

No feedback on how to do this?

Fog light power source must move to park lights.

 

I think it's because no one knows??

 

Maybe, but I know there's quite a few guys out there who knows how to tear an SC apart. Just trying to find a way to motivate these guys.

I would love to hit the fogs while on park lights....
....and the fogs on while on high beam.

 

This 2nd gen iS guys can do it. Maybe reading their thread will give you an idea how to.

 

Maybe I will take this up as homework.

After I paint my calipers.

 

Been doing the research. This is doable, just need time to come up with a plan and do a trial.

The 2GIS, they used an FJ Cruiser Fog ****. I do not even know if we have the space where we can install a switch.

It can be modified, fogs turn on with park lights, however the fogs automatically turn on as soon as you hit the park lights. Hence people added a SW.

I just need time.

 

All it is:

Find the fuse for the fogs. Get to the wires (do not know details yet), disconnect the power source and T-tap to Park Lights' powere source. And then run your SW wires to the cabin.

I am just trying to inspire some of our resident experts here so they can step up to the challenge.

 

Here's the finished product from the IS:

 

I think I am the first to do this on my 3rd Gen GS. I used the guide from the 2nd Gen IS and did some electrical homework on my GS. I am about to do the same thing on the SC this week/weekend. Most likely I will wire it to come on with the parking lights.

 

Fantastic. Good luck and thanks in advance.

I am working on side repeaters.
