fog lights for running lights


Recommended Posts

2006 CTT- Has anyone wired the fog lights so they stay on all time to use as running lights?

I generally run with lights on (black cayenne) but notice the gps is somehow hooked with the lights so when lights are on, the gps goes to night light mode. That makes it a little difficult to see. I am getting older anyhow and need all the assistance seeing that I can get. Was hoping someone had an easy switch of wires to get this done.

Thanks

Ben

Be careful about which lights you use for daytime running lights; there are some limits which lamps can be used and which cannot (e.g.: parking or low beam head lamps are OK), so check before doing the wiring only to find the vehicle will not pass inspection.

No easy way that I know of but you can have the headlights programmed on as the DTRL so whenever the ignition is on the headlights will be also regardless of switch position. Another option is to install a universal DTRL kit and wire it into the fog light circuit.

Durametric can turn on the DTRL function.

No problem with inspection. Live in Mi. and they do not inspect until it dies by the side of the highway.

Thanks for the info on DTRL. Will look into that if I cannot find a better/easier way.

Anyone got a wiring diagram of the headlights/fog lights?? Maybe I could find the fog light wire in a fuze box and wire it direct??
