In this video, I show you how I was able to get the fog light to stay illuminated when the high beams are on. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
DIY-BRI, thanks.
I believe this has something to do with switching both Fog & Headlights to LED. But, this worked for me and helps tremendously driving on some of these roads in Illinois (lots of Wildlife). Also a great place to rock bumper sticker "So sorry for following so closely in front of you!" I need a train-horn!
Again, this did the trick, and thanks! 😊
Thanks for watching
I had to do it on my 2007 and work perfect 👍🏼 thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I had to restart your video because of the that’s what she said moment. It’s 1:22 and I just busted out laughing. Thank you
I agree, that comment caught me off guard, thanks for that!
My issue is similar but opposite. I put the LED lights. Low beams work fine high beams work fine but when I turn fog lights on, my high beams turn on with fog lights and my high beam dash icon is dim. Then I turn off fog light s and low beams come back in and I can operate low and high beams normal with full dash icon. So fog lights turn on my high beams. Is there a fix for this? 2008 F150 FX2
I have the same issue with my fog lights. He said something in the video about swapping or switching the polarity. Not sure what that is just yet.
I have the same issue. Has anyone found a video on how to fix this
This fix also fixes that. I had the same issue on my 2004. Now, the bright beams only come on when I set turn them on. Additionally, it doesn't matter if the fog lights are on.
Able to find a fix for that?
Same issue Any solution yet??
That good ol 5.4 ticking
Glad to be rid of the 5.4
@@DIYBRYwhy are you glad to be rid of the 5.4 ?
@@kellyyetter1355 Mine was just a horrible engine. Slow and lacking in power. Truck was only a 4 speed transmission too. Turned out to be horrible for trying to tow a trailer.
@@DIYBRYoh ok. Sorry to hear that bud. I guess I've been blessed because I've had no issues as far as what you went thru goes. But this was a great video for sure.
@@kellyyetter1355 Glad to hear it. I very well I could have just had a lemon. Or that’s what I get for buying used.
Worked for me, thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I have the same truck but I'm trying to get my cluster lights a different color like white but there brighter green csn u tell me how u got urs white ?
One of my cluster bulbs went out. I just found a replacement on Amazon. I don’t recall what brightness I purchased. It was really very easy to do, just takes a little time. I’d record a video, but I no longer have that truck.
Hi. I have the other side problem. When I get my fog lights the beams turn to high inmediatly.
Do you also have an F150? What year?
@@DIYBRY Yes I do, F-150 king ranch 2006. I put it a Heise Led Lights. Before that with HID it didn't happened. Before now when I put fog lights, even when high beams were on, the beams changed to low, and that was the normal behavior of the lighting system I think. Now, when fog lights get on, the beams turn to high inmediatly.
I have that same problem. Any fix yall know?
Same problem here. 2005 F150 Lariat. Replaced headlights and fog lights with LEDs. Now fog lights will work only with parking lights on. As soon as I switch to low beams the fog lights turn off and the high beams turn on. If I push the switch in to turn off the fog lights then the low beams work as they should. The steering column high beam switch works as it should. Wondering if this hack will fix this issue? I guess for a $7 relay at AutoZone I may give it a try.
@@georgeec3 Yes I am getting the same problems too. Did you find a fix? I wonder if we put a load resistor on the fog light bulb if that would help.
I need help seeing where the fog light Harness goes to from the fog light bulb to where it ends
I do not have my 2007 F150 anymore. Could try a google search for a working diagram for your year and model.

I have a diferent problem, when i put the fog ligths on the high beams turn on , any solution ?
That is one of those "without seeing it, it is difficult to say" situations.
This mod fixes that problem

I have this same problem with my 2014 Ford STX, but I have a question, is that fuse box on the same side in the 2014 STX model ?
Or can I get it in another area?
Thanks 😊
I saw comments here where they say that this can't be done, that they don't all turn on at the same time, but my 2014 Ford STX turned on all of them at the same time and a week ago they don't want to turn on the fog lights when I put the high beams on.
In newer models, things and be changed by using forscan. Kind of a way to get into the truck’s computer and change settings.
Would this work on my 09 F250? I’m tired of the fog lights cutting off when I switch to my high beams.
The fuse box is likely different, but in theory, you would just need to locate the correct relay.
Did you try it? If so did it work? I need to do it to my 2010 & 2000 f150 but can't find much info other than kits folks but and install.
The fog lights are not supposed to be on when the HIgh beams are on. You never drive with high beans in the fog

Maybe he wants to use them for extra light at night
Fog lights can be used without there being fog you do know that right? It provides more food light at night without the need of using high beams.
Damn seems like you need to fix that ticking if not goodbye engine
I upgraded to 2018 F150. Not worrying about that engine any longer.
5.4 3v engines have very loud injectors! That ticking is normal and the bad noises are the clunking or pinging from the cams. SOOOO many shops have made a KILLING off of exhaust leaks or bad rollers being mistaken for worse!
@@Powerstroke431right on ! The 5.4 IMO is a high mileage motor. I see tons of comments from guys that have over 300K and say it's still going strong. I'm at 180K myself and it's running great. Knock on wood 😆
My high beam and low beams are reversed. Do you know how to fix that
Were you able to figure that out?
You couldn't do that by using Forscan?
Not sure on a 2007.
It doesn't show it for me on forscan. What about you
Damn yours ticks pretty bad
Indeed! Glad I got myself a newer one.
The reason you can't turn both on is because it's dangerous. It makes it even brighter for oncoming traffic. So, basically what you have is someone who is blind traveling at 65mph head-on toward you. Not smart.
Also, why would you need both on at the same time?
You shouldn’t be shining your high beams at oncoming traffic in the first place.
@@DIYBRY 😂😂💯
6 months of darkness with 1,000lb moose hanging out in the road. Also use a 20" led light bar. Not everyone has the same situation.
That's what she said
