HID's and Daytime Running Lights

[marcus]

ok for canadian models...with fogs.. ...to keep drl,fogs,hid bi-xenon with high beam.. here it is u just need to cut 2 wires...headlight should have 3 wires, ground, low,and high. cut the low beam wire.. then cut the positive wire on the fogs..interconnect them..therefore when the car is on ur fogs is running on 10v (drl). once the headlight switch is turned on that should activate ur hid ( which was interconnected w/ the fogs.which is actually the fog light. high beam is still ur high beam.....
so 2 wire interconnected...drl=fogs=lowbeam, fog switch =(hid)low, then high beam remain as is.....no relay needed may need to supply a lower amp for the fogs..coz its running amp from the headlight..and fog amp should be sufficient to run the hid bi xenon.

The low beam wire is actually a ground. Connecting that to the fog's positive would kinda blow shit up. The 3 wires on the headlight plug is actually:

12V
LowBeam Ground
HighBeam Ground

I'm not sure how the foglight circuit is setup, so I can't really tell you how to set it up your way properly.
