Full time FOG lights??

[PJC01X5]

I have seen a few X5s with fog light on 100% of the time. I imagine a diode could replace the relay and that would work and is not even be permanent.

Anybody done this? And the big questions is WHERE is the relay?? The owners manual does not even tell me, and does not even have a fuse chart. Quite lame, even my ford truck manual has that.

Where is the relay and which exact one?

PJC 2001 3.0 liter, Sport, OEM Xenon headlamp BTW (and may try updating FOGs to Xenon)

Any Experts?

Here is a link, (one of several), that talk about the issue...
not easy to do, though the AutoOnLights deal seems to
offer a solution. The Search Tab is of help.

there is no such relay for any exterior lighting, it is controled by a Lamp Module. The Fog lamp switch is a momentary contact signal to the lamp module to send the signal to power the fog lamps. you can wire this signal to the igntion switch if youd like.
