Hey guys i just recently bought some DEPO foglights and got everything all wired up and all is working great. I have that Cheapo switch that it comes with and am wanting to change it. I have a EDM Console switch that fits in the armrest on my Ej. Here is the issue, the POS Plug that came with the Foglights has 4 wires (see pic) and the EDM switch has 3 (see pic). I wired up the Edm plug through the Dash wiring harness that came with the foglights, and i keep blowing #19 fuse (illumintaion of parking lights) and that is not allowing me to turn the foglights on. I Can get the EDM foglight switch to light up but not turn the foglights them self on? Im stumped a little help on the situation would help alot.

I hope that all makes sense if not ask me and i will tell you whats wrong or right. I just want to get the switch all wired up.

Sorry for the Cell phone pics!

Thanks Guys!

 

Increase the fuse to 15A. When I used my OEM USDM wire harness and modified it to accept a JDM switch (on my Integra), I blew the fuse. I put a larger fuse and never had it blow again.

Are you sure you wired the Depo harness correctly to the switch?

 

Positive, i got it right! I will up the fuse and see if that works.

But if i wire those 2 yellow wires into one on the EDM one it will be fine?

Thanks, Bro!

 

Is the yellow constant 12v?

 

Red is the 12volt from the Batt

Blue is Ground

Yellow is hooked to the fuse box

The wires on the back of the EDM plug are obviously different colors.

 

Was the pinout the same as the Integra switch in the link I provided in your other thread?

 

I dont think they were i cant find the link though. I can snap a pick of the back of the plug though and post it if that would help!

 

Yes, please snap a pic.

 

Black = Ground
Green W/red =Constant 12v i think
Yellow= Fuse box

 

It is pined the same so i guess i can just run the correct wire where they need to be.

 

It really shouldn't matter which color is input and which is output (green/red and yellow). It would work either way.

But I wonder why two switches that look exactly the same have different outputs.

 

Well i would have to wire it up like the diagram from the teg. I then would think that it would work like a charm.

 

Well i got it to work but now it wont light up (illuminate) What wire can i pin so it will?

Thanks again bro for all the help!
