Installing new fog/driving lights on an 03 mustang. there are wires attached to the fake switch on the dash. Is there a plug somewhere that I just plug into the fog light bulb?
Re: Installing new fog/driving lights on an 03 mustang....
The fog light is normally one complete assembly that you just unplug from the outside and replace with a new one auto zone is a good place to help with this

if you installed an aftermarket stereo, the tail lights run through the illumination. make sure all wires are hooked hot to hot and ground to ground. if you installed it while battery was hooked up and touched a wire, most likely blew a fuse
You have a short to ground somewhere in the drl-fog lamp circuit. Check for obvious wiring connector or wiring to drl & fog lamps. check wiring for pinched or broken wires coming from sockets. If you don't find problem, you can trace wiring from lamps to main harnesses and hopefully find source of short.
hope this helps.
i dont think current wiring harness is set up for fog lights but fuse box should have a spot for relay and fuse (although it may or may not have metal leads installed) if your getting parts from ford i ask them if they have wiriring harness for it
if you decide to wire them in yourself i would HIGHLY recomend u put a relay in the system if you dont you will have to use bigger wire tho the whole sytem. with a relay u only have use the bigger wire from relay to lights. You will also have to use a heavy duty switch u will burn up factory switch if dont use a realy
Yep it happens http://www.rangey.com/page7.html
Look for cutts in the wiring, tape up. Check all plugs and relays, you can find.
As for diagrammes, either a Haynes of down load a manual, if you have no joy on Google or Alltheweb try http://www.landroverweb.com/Land-Rover-Range-Rover-manual-pdf.htm
There are no front fogs fitted, only the driving lights in the air dam, the switch with the 2 on it lower front dash cluster with rear fog light switch etc.
Did you check the wiring when you replace the switch? Some times the plug that you plug into the light will be melted or burnt. I know cause I had 2 - 5.0 stangs and both did the samething. Is the car equip with fog lights? If so I would disconnect them. I found that the fog lights on my 89 gt cause the head light switch to over heat and melt. On both I had to repair the wiring at the plug.
If you bought the fog lights from Ford and they plugged into factory plugs at the front bumper, then I suspect you need the headlight switch that came optional for your car. You will need to install a relay into the fuse box. Check for any fuses for that circuit. I did one on a Ford f-150 and the switch came with the lights from Ford.Usually the fog lights are not on until you push a button or turn the switch.
My V6 didnt come wired for fog lights. So if it's a v6 just run wires from the switch to the lights.
