Default foglight wiring without harness, relay?

I bought the jdm yellow foglights and installed them to my parking lights and they worked fine for a year and now the amps are to high and the fuse keeps blowing.
SO i bought the jdm switch and a 4 pin 40 amp relay. My question is does anyone have a wiring diagram? and do I need a fuse runing to the battery? If not any suggestions to wire them up need help cause im selling the car and i dont have the oem harness or the connectors?
Thanks rob

is it safe to just run the fogs with the parking lights on a 30 amp fuse instead of 20 amp

it works with the 30 but not the 20

never replace a fuse with a larger rating fuse.

when a fuse blows, its protecting the circuit from overloading...

if you overload the circuit, you risk electrical failure which could lead to an electrical fire.



if you just want the foglights to turn on when your parking lights are on... follow that diagram.. but replace the coil in with the parking light wire...
