OK - The 3rd gen European Yaris is wired differently than the US market ones are, but they are pre-wired for front fogs. The front fog light relay is not built into the body ECU, but rather is in a separate, small two relay box under the dash. There is a 15A fuse (FOG FR) in the under dash fuse panel for them. On the headlight switch connector, the green and brown wires are for the front fogs. Green gets connected to brown (ground) to turn on the fogs. On the headlight switch connectors the light green wire is for the rear fogs. It too gets connected to the brown wire to turn them on. So you could simply jump green to light green to have the rear fog switch turn both on.

I've checked the wiring under the hood and found the socket there waiting to be plugged in (hurray!!!) Also I had a look under the dashboard, found the 15A fuse but couldn't located them two relays, but it doesn't matter. I believe it's somewhere there.
Now - according to the diagram where would you suggest to connect the positive DRL wire? BTW I just cannot believe that the dealer after typing my reg number offered me worth £150 fog light kit with the wiring set where actually I would need only lamps & headlight switch. No common sense at all. thank you so much Scott |

To begin with I connected the green wire to the light green using another piece of wire. When switched fogs on the stalk, only rear fog light came on the instrument cluster, but after split second it kicked itself out. When I removed all three wires (green, light green and brown) from the connector and stick them together, only rear fogs light came on the instrument cluster. When stick brown and light green together, the rear fogs light came on (on the instrument cluster) When did the same with brown and green, the front fogs light remains dead. I strongly believe I did connect the front fog lamps correctly. I have tried to understand the system & I have done a couple tests like disconnected rear fog lamp & then stick light green to brown. The result was that rear fog light came on the instrument cluster. I couldn't get the same result with the front one. Something is missed somewhere. I've checked the 15A fuse from the fuse box located under the dash. I have no idea what to do next. Last edited by karloslatynos; 03-07-2015 at 06:32 PM. |
