Stock Foglights

Does anybody know how to rig the 2002 f-150 so that u can have just the parking lights on with the foglights? How can I do that?

Your truck's foglights are wired to the headlight switch. If you wish to have the foglights come on with the parking lights, you will need to pull the switch, use a volt meter and check to see which wires are for the foglights. You will need to cut and splice the stock harness, which I do not like to do. Another alternative is to wire another switch for the foglights and disconnect them from the headlight switch, again, you will need to cut the harness. Those are the two options you have that I am aware of.

If it were me, I'd do what John said, only I would add switch that was powered by the parking light. When switched on, the fogs would come on with the parking lights. But leave the fogs wired to the light switch so they could be used the regular way when the added switch was off.

You can have a hard time passing yearly inspections with that setup.

It should pass inspection. Their not really fog lights ( which in this state can't be on without head lights). Their really aux driving lights.

TransExtreme....I used the instructions on that site and it worked great for me. Nice to use em when you want and not when "they " think you want. I know there are some laws about them but its not like I am blinding anyone with em.
