useing the oem foglight switch to control driving lights on a bugeye
 

Has anybody done this conversion on their bugeye if so do you have some instructions or wiring diagrams, I already have a wiring diagram from an american site but the wire colours dont correspond at the oem foglight switch can aybody help.
cheers gussy

Why do you wanna do that?

Gus, i have a WRX manual on cd if thats any use to you???

If you buy Prodrives driving light kit it comes with a two page diagram showing what to do on the switch and on the relay to do just this. It's been posted here a few times but I can't find it at the mo. Last time was about a month ago. Before that about Oct '02.

I can scan it and email it but not for a couple of days, where do you want it emailing?

Have you not tried useing a multi meter to find out what the wires do?

Jasoon im a numpty when it comes electrics and I wouldnt know one end of a multimeter to another.Brun if you did a lot of fast road use at night round where I live you would understand why I want the extra light, all im doing is useing the fog light switch to arm the lights so I can have them on or off on main beam I hope thats answered your question.Chelspeed if you could send me the instructions that would be great.

LOL

Gus, im the same Jasoon from cumbrian scoobs....

I know and you only live down the road mate.Hopefully chelspeed will mail me the instructions the problem im having is with the wires at the switch identifying what does what??and getting round the switching earth on the bugeye.

I've tried doing a search but cant find aything :(

gus is this any use to you?

Whoops, just mailed it to Jasoon instead of Gussy, sorry Jasoon. Will now try to mail it to Gussy.... well I would if I could find an email address in Gussy's profile. Gussy can you advise where to send it?

no problem mate

chelspeed thanks for that I will see jasoon see if he can print me it out cos my printers knackered. jasoon only lives a few doors down from me I will e-mail him or pop round.

Well I'm still none the wiser,chelspeed thanks for the instructions we have had a look with a tester and there is still a problem with colour codes etc with the wireing were the instructions you sent to jasoon for a classic or bugeye.In a numpty sort off a way I could do with a drawing in layman terms for the bugeye.???

It's bugeye, I used it on a MY02 STi (aka STi7) and it worked as it says, colour codes were right, just couldn't find the 33 way plug they talk about, but found another that worked as it says.

I've got a sketch I used to interpret the diagram, I'll scan that and mail it to Jasoon tonight if that would help.

Your a star chelspeed, Jason is coming round tonight with some fresh drawings so with yours as well I should be on my way to getting this sorted thanks.I will let you know how we got on.

yhm, well Jasoon has.

Thanks Chelspeed i'll let Gus have a look at what you sent.

Chelspeed mate I'v had a look at your drawings and not been an auto electritian me head is now battered in would there be any chance of you drawing it out in a better way???so I can understand it if you know what I mean and then e-mailing it to Jason it would be a great help thanks

OK, will do it tonight.

Or perhaps tomorrow when the beer monster is not around.

Whenever you do it Chelspeed please make it easy to understand!;) Gussy is battering on my door and ringing me up desperate to get these lights sorted!;)

i take it no luck on tuesday then mark :(

No J. Its got me totally beaten.:( Give me an exhaust or gearbox to fix any day!;)

how far did you get with the diagram i did?

Jasoon,
Im afraid your does not work,looking again at chelspeeds I use the oe foglight relay its just trying to find the 30 pin connector ,chelspeeds going to send you a better drawing and instructions so when you get them could you pop round with them.
cheers
