In a Marauder event earlier this year I believe someone had their highbeams, lowbeams and fog lights on all at once. Who was this and how can this be done?

drock96marquis showed me how to 'adjust' that circuit, but it was for an ENTIRELY different purpose. You don't want your highs and lows on at the same time since the heat would be too much for the housings and receptacle.

However, there IS a way to do highs and fogs at the same time by replacing one relay with a jumper.

Do a search. It's here, somewhere.

Keep in mind that it's illegal in some states.

just pull the turn signal lever TOWARDS you, you'll have to hold it there but they all are on....I think this is what your getting at......?

There's a way to get that when you push it away (which should be brights only). Even if pulled toward, the fogs go out. They are two different by-passes.

I see....I always thought this would be too much juice to run threw the system for a prolonged period of time....?

I know of the trick to keep the turing siginal in just the right position, but then I cannot use the turning siginal and sometimes it's quite difficult to get the right spot. If it really can get too hot, then this is not worth it. I ordered a unit though Jegs so all 4 can stay on on my K5 like GM cars used to.... I wonder why they quit doing that. I've had that mod over 3 years and I still have 3 out of 4 17 year old headlights, one broke because of a snowPOW hitting the truck... they don't make em like that anymore.

Thanks for the link fastblackmerc
