Hey all you experts. I have a bit of a dilemma, I installed my foglights yesterday afternoon and thought everything went well. Checked and made sure all my lights, signals, interior lights work and when I finally put everything back together bumper and all...I get into my car and my power windows were not working.

#2. Then I noticed my tach and spedometer were not working as well. Odometer was working of course, but when I took it up and town my street the needles weren't moving.

#3. Finally, my aftermarket alarm works and everthing, but my locks will not unlock when I hit the switch. They'll lock, but won't unlock. When I remove the key from the ignition they'll automatically unclock.

Can anyone help? I looked at the fuses, but I didn't notice any blown fuses.

Thanks,

-Christee-

what wires did you hook your foglights onto, and what all did you remove to wire them in?

We ended up just using the wiring diagram from the wiring kit and followed the driections that came with it. So the lights are directly drawing current from the battery itself. I'm not using the relay or anything. We actually cut the existing prewiring for the fog harness and spliced the wires that came with the wiring kit to the fogs.

I believe that that's the problem, since I didn't use that relay and route the wiring the correct way to distribute the currents it's wigging out my system.

Does that seem right?
