Buggman mods

doyouquaxu · #1 08-21-2011, 10:09 PM

Fog light switch mods and headlight led mod. Pics below will show what I'm dealing with. I did pm him but haven't heard back, other members with the mods don't know what's wrong either. Any tips?

Headlights are off right now, light is on with key on.

These are on with key in or not, they're the fog lights. Already fiddled with the lights, I can't get them to turn off. The switches work, so idk

i got a big goody box from buggman. lots of goodies, and lots of wires!

i got the bezel, 2 fog switch harnesses, the first 2 circuit 5 3/4" oval, LED mods for the fog and headlight switches, and i think that's it.

Post up pics of the stuff man, I want to see buggman's bezel modded. I know it will be better than mine. His prices are awesome for what you get.

herp derp. more pics in my build thread.

and i totally agree. i spent a good bit on his stuff, but can't be happier. the harnesses were all contained in split loom so they're nice and neat, wires are all heat shrunk at connections, and labeled. plus typed up instructions with diagrams.

Looks good man! Yeah I haven't received my harness yet (just shipping to Canada usually takes a bit) but i am hoping to get it this week and install on the weekend. Right now I am just going to use the factory fog switches, but I am thinking later in the year I may want a blue LED fog switch

Found out the problem: my memory sucks! When I ran the wires, I used yellow as ground, green as 12v constant, and black as the wire that runs to the lights when they are on. Got them situated correctly, hooked up the illumination wires to a different source, and now everything works as it should. Thanks everyone for the help and I hope this didn't deter anyone from the great products buggman makes and sells

lol... it's the red wire, it's the blue wire, no it's the black wire.... where did that yellow wire come from?!?

It's a good thing I don't diffuse bombs for a living, we'd all be screwed!

I am having issues cause nothing is working for me..

What wires were tapped?

I have done the following via my 01 ranger:

I have the 12v constant power tapped into the left cigy adaptor
12v key switched tapped into the radio harness yellow with black stripe
12v to dash lights I have plugged into the radio harness because that's the only wire that was red with black stripe...

Thanks,

check the fuses in the harness. and did you hook up the relay from the battery?
