Fog Light Wiring - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #92234 6 posts Started by d3ath2009
just got a set of factory fogs for my '97 ST and trying to figure out what to do to wire them up. I really want to use a relay but don't want to fork out the near $100 for a new switch. Does anybody know if the wiring for the fog lights leading into and out of the switch can be cut and routed to a simple toggle switch? If so, what are the wires needed? So i need to know what color wires are coming from the relay to the factory switch and the wires from the factory switch to the fog lights.
Anybody got anything on this???? I've looked at wiring diagram after wiring diagram and found nothing.
$100 for a switch?! don't think you are looking at the right places
If you have factory fogs, you can put in your own simple toggle switch
I'll have a look at some diagrams and see if I can find wire colour

Had a quick look and looks like Malpaso's sticky is best..
Theres tons of topics out there but I can't seem to find this specific answer
Have a go at downloading a repair manual and look up the wiring in that?

I have the Haynes manual and it has fog wiring for 4th gen, but diagrams for 6th gen don't show fog lights whatsoever. I bought factory fogs. The multiswitch that has the fog light switch on it currently runs around $75-$100 on ebay and I really don't want to pay that for a switch. I have a toggle switch I can use, but unlike Malpaso's sticky thread, I still want to use the relay.

Just buy a switch and relay from autozone. It'll save you a lot of money.
My pre facelift fogs are run to a main power source, through a relay into my parking lights and into a toggle switch so that I can run them alone with the parking lights as a day/dusk driving light. Advance Auto Parts has a wiring kit specifically for this and it's $11. The switch is chinsy though so I made my own light toggle setup.
