Default help, fog light people ..this IS NOT a how to install question..

alright, first off this isnt an OEM fog light kit for the 92-95 civics...but anyway, the stupid connector got stuck in the switch and when forcing it out i managed to pull out all the wires...now i dont remember what wire goes where for the switch...can anyone help, or take a look at their switch and tell me where to connect these back in the plug? THANKS

the wires ( think the two yellow ones went on the outside, but im not sure)


the connector (4 wires and 5 places to put them )


and the back of the switch

did your fog light kit comes with some instructions, or can you read a name off of the fog light kit and look at the manufactues site for the wiring Diagram...

Did you put the lights on yourself?
Was the Factory Honda Wiring used for the Aftermarket fog lights?
Do you have the manual for the Fog Lights, Is there a Name on the Fog light that you can read? Is the Wiring diagram on the Manufactures Web Site.

lets label the pins left to right.. in 1-5

test the pins out for continuity with a mulitmeter, and the switch in both positions on and off... that will tell you which is the switched pins

another set of pins is the illumination and ground, using a 9v battery or 12v source test for that...

The two yellows are positive power going into the switch, one for the on light and the other to supply the signal to turn on the relay. The red is the signal wire going from the switch to the relay to turn it on and the black is ground.... From the way they wires are sitting in the first pic it looks like they'd be yellow red empty black yellow... but you'd have to either test the switches pins or open up the casing and see which wires are going where.....

dont go by how they're set up, all i can remember is the two yellow wires go on the outside. ill take the casing apart and look

but it would REALLY BE HELPFUL if someone could take a quick picture of their connector just to show what order they are in...and it doesnt have to be the same colours
