    Hey all!

    I have what might be a dumb issue, so here goes.

    I have installed fog lights in my '02 tundra which did not have them from the factory. I have installed an OEM Denso 567-0015 relay, and an OEM Toyota fog light switch. The switch, and relay work however they turn my high-beams on. Not my fog-lights.

    I have looked around the forum, but have not found anything that is helpful. I probably overlooked it, and I apologize if I have.

    If it helps to understand my predicament I have installed Led headlights that do NOT turn on the indicator light on my gauge cluster. I have wondered if that is the issue, or if there is a fuse that is a "dual use." If that is the case, any information would be greatly appreciated. I would prefer not cutting into my wiring harness if it can be helped since I've already bought everything I think I will need for a factory install.

    So what did I do wrong? I'm at a loss.

    Noah.

    Never mind, I'm just dumb. Please disregard.

    I didn't realize that there was a signal back from the bulbs that engages the relay for the fog lights. Now I have ordered some load resistors that plug, and play. This should take care of my fog light issue, and I can keep my led headlights!

    Hopefully this thread will help avoid other problems for more users like yourself.

    Led headlights, tail lights. 6 inch lift, 33in tires, icon coilovers.
    Did it work. I bought led head lights but then my fog lights wouldn't work. The fog light button now makes the high beams go on and off. I tried load resistors. But no luck it didnt change anything. So i put old light bulbs back in and now it all works correctly. But i now have leds in my fog lights and old bulbs in my head light. Id like to have leds in both. Maybe a diffrent led would work. Not sure. Im stumped.

    Yeah, it worked for me. I bought some that plug in to the harness and the bulb plugs into the headlight. Needed a little bit of work once I got them to make them work though.
