Default Front Fog-light Switch Wiring

Afternoon people!

Have a quick question regarding the wiring of my front fog light switch...

Since wiring up my Hella 1000 driving lights to come on with high beam, the illumination of the switch (with the hedlights on) does not work. However the (green) indicator bulb does switch on when I put on high beam.

Could one of you provide the correct position of connecting wires onto the 6 pin plug please? Especial the two black (with silver dots) wires.

F.Y.I. I know the illumination bulb has not gone on the switch, as I've tried a spare and this does exactly the same.

Any help will be most appreciated!

Thanks,


Charlie

From a prodrive description to rewire the fog switch for drive lights:

As standard the pins go (looking at back of switch):

2 - - 1

6 5 4 3

Where:

1 is violet, on/off ind light 12V
2 is black, illumination light -ve
3 is yellow/white, switched output
4 is violet, illumination lamp 12V (when side/dip/main lights are on)
5 is black, neg input used to switch 3
6 is not used

Translating:

Pins 2 and 4 are the switch illumination, 2 is always -ve, 4 goes 12V when the normal lights are on.

Pin 5 is a negative which is not connected to anything when the switch is off.

Pin 1 is another 12V when 12V when the normal lights are on.

When the switch is on 5 is connected to pin 3 and the other side of the on/off indicator light to show the switch is on. The switched -ve on pin 3 (the output) is then used to trigger a relay.

May be back in touch
