Thread: New foglights not working?

  1. #11
    Did you add a relay to the fuse box?

    Adding pics. This is my underhood fuse/relay panel (2015) and my car does have fog lights...

    Now I don't know if the underhood fuse box for a 2018 are the same as these 2015's. I do know for a fact some of the wiring inside the car is different.

    I'm assuming the headlight relay is different between murica and canuckystan cause we have the drl that turns on the high beams at low voltage. So there's gonna be a resistor that gets hot and craps out eventually.

    So my relays all look to be the same as yours, but I can't find the exact one at any AutoParts store around me... Would I need this exact one? Or am I looking for a specific type, and any brand of that type would work? I can not find any auto parts stores that carry Panasonic 8627A030 anywhere

    There are generic that are the same, oreillys keeps them behind the counter. Match terminals on bottom and amperage and it'll work.

    Just pull one of the other ones out, swap it out where the fog light one goes and give it a try. It should work. Then take that relay to parts store and buy a relay that looks the same. Make sure it's 12volt 99% will be but there could be 24volt ones out there too that look the same.

    Much appreciated! Did that and it worked! Thank you for the help! I'm still new into electrical stuff with the car and just didn't wanna screw it up. Swapped it and they worked, ordered a new one and its on the way!

    Okay so I have a 2020 Mirage, I added foglights to it out of a 2015 mirage, It was already turned on in the ETACS options, I added a relay and it is still not working, the light on the dash isn't illuminating either. I'm lost as to what to do from here.
