Not yet. I will this weekend. I am moving into my new home friday and still working on getting it ready for the move in. I should have time this weekend.
I had hoped the HID's would be a fix. My original thinking was that the High Beam element went out on my standard bulb, and it was trickin the system into thinkin it was on, when it wasnt. Never had high beams or fogs for the last month. I have high beams w/ this HID kit, but still no fogs. And as previously mentioned, when turnin the fogs on, it turns the HB on instead, and doesnt engage the Fogs at all. Before the HID, the fogs would not turn on, and also my low beams would go off, and no high beam engaged, yet the indicator in the cluster would lite up as if the HB came on, whether I did it with the HB switch, or tried turnin the fogs on.
I'm hopin this Bambi mod will fool the system and give me back what I want/had. I will defintely keep everyone posted on the outcome (this weekend sometime).
Thanks!!!

Sounds good. It doesn't work using the autolamps either? just another idea...

Thats the thing. I swapped out all the relays with others in the fuse box and nothing tricked it back to normal. Nothing also went wrong since I placed the old relay in a new spot (that should have tricked something else into not working, but nope, everything is ok except the dogs). I also went and bought a relay, R202. This is under the hood on the driver side fender. Still, no fogs.
This has been going on for a month. I posted a thread when it originally happened (when I was using both regular bulbs in the headlamps and the fogs) but never got a reply, tons of views those. So after getting my Bi-Xenon headlamp kit (hoping this would fix it) my high beams came back but still no fogs, and the fog switch turns the high beams on, not the fogs. I'm baffled...

Alright I know exactly what you are talking about Vano and I am going to do the Bambi mod tomorrow when I get home from bein on vacation. It had to do with the fact that with the HID's you only plugged into one side of the stock headlight input so there is not enough resistance or something technical like that. I bet your high beam indicator goes half way bring too don't it? Ill report back with my results tomorrow.
