NEED HELP ASAP ! re: Parklights Sat, 26 February 2005 09:42 Go to next message
Hey all ... just wiring up my foglights on my celica Razz

now ive installed everything but the switch to turn them on coz im stuck on somehing...

here is the wiring diagram .. all is install apart from the switch

http://members.iinet.net.au/~richo99/images/DSCN3498.JPG



ive grounded it ... the white wire is attached .. now in that diagram it says "(RED) Connect wire to + Side of Parking light"
to the right of the wiring diagram ... does this mean i have to find which wire my lights are hooked to and attach it .. does anyone know which wire or how to find the wire. ?

if i didnt hook the wire up (red one coming from switch) then do u think the lights will still work ???

all help much appreciated !!!

The parklight wil be used to power the relay which is switched by the switch which switches the relay powered from the battery the runs the foglights.

OR

Yes just wire as per diagram and grab power from anywhere along that wire to the park lights. It should only have power when the lights are on.

BUT

You may be better off to run the power from the low beam wire as in some states fog lights can only be run with low beam.

Could those pics be any bigger Shocked .

Where is the relay mounted?
If it is in the engine bay just pic up of one of the park light wires.
If it is inside the cab then pic up off the headlight switch.

You need to connect the red wire to a wire on your car that has power when the park lights are turned on.

Good luck

Brad

as per my 2nd post .. with the wires coming from the rear of the actaul park light globe enclosure .. (where u instert the globe for the park light would it be the

a.) White wire with black stripe
or
b.) Green wire

looks like the Green is leading to the BOTTOM of the globe inserted and the white/black wire is going to the side..

anyone know if its just generic that globes are + on the bottom and - on the side ?
oh and if stripped one of those wires and ran it to that because the switch's red wire is in the engine bay not under the dash u think thats smart or tarded ?
