First I need to find my camera, it is still picked from the move, everything is still picked even my tools I feel soooooooo alone. LOL
haha no problem. i would have taken some pictures myself but i dont have my truck right now. atleast this problem isnt something thats stopping you from driving it.

the fuse panel under the hood should hold just a relay for the light circuit, the inside panel should have the fuse to run the circuit if im not mistaken.

alright i double checked the fuses and relays. under the hood there is the fog light relay as well as fuse #9, its a 15amp fuse. In the truck in the fuse panel under the dash there is a fuse as well, it should be fuse #27, its a 5amp fuse.

the locations of the fuses are in your manual, if you have it. if not you dont ahve it i can tell you what it is when i get my truck back lol.

Pity7700, I happen to find this lay out of the pins in the plug that attaches to the headlight switch. Now I will try to explain which pins have wiring going to it and which pins do not have wiring going to it.

If you look at the lay outs below you can see the pins; 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12. The pins 2, 5, and 6 do not have wiring going to them, all other pins have wiring going to them and everything works great. Is there some way to add the wiring for pins 2,5 and 6 so the fog-lights will work I also need to know were those wires go from those pins? Still raining an looking for my camera. Thanks again for your help.

if these pins do not have the proper wires going to them then youll have to wire the lights up manually. if the wires arent there then i doubt the truck is prewired for the fog lights. You will have to manually wire the lights up with a relay, switch and the proper fuse, which isnt a big task. as far as getting it wired up to that switch you would have to get a wire to plug into the proper pins in the factory harness so that the switch you bought will work properly. personally i wouldnt bother with it, i would buy an AUX. LED rocker switch, relay and fuse and do it that way.

after those pins you would have to wire into the battery junction box for the relay and wire into the cab fuse panel as well. you could jsut wire into the back of the switch and do your own relay and fuse as well but like i said, i wouldnt bother with that switch at all, seems like it would be a pain in the *** to get another wire into the factory harness to make that switch you bought work with the fog lights.

Thank You for your help I just thought there was way to use the OEM parts but since the wiring is incomplete I will need to use after market which I do not like, wanted to keep it stock. Thanks again!

no problem. you can keep it stock but that means some in depth wiring, going through that switch, in to the battery junction box and the in cab box as well.
