I got a set of fog lights for an S13. I wired them up with a relay kit as described in the kits instructions and nada. :rl:

I have a 4 pin relay.

12v goes to the battery (15 amp in line fuse).
I tapped into the sidemarker lights, red/something colored wire (2 amp in line fuse) to trigger the relay.
Then main wire goes to the two fog lights and grounded the relay.

I don't have it running through the switch, but when I do the switch will illuminate but the fog light bulbs won't no matter if I use the switch or not.

I'm positive I have the whole thing wired correctly.

Someone help me! :axe:

Pin85, parking light input (red/blue on car).
Pin86, ground.
Pin87, battery.
Pin30, output to lights.

Lights require a ground as well.

There's nothing else to it unless the bulbs are both blown.

Whats the easiest way to test the bulbs? They're brand new so I doubt they're blown but you never know.

use a DMM and test for continuity between the 2 wires.

make sure the place you grounded is actually grounded. I had that problem when i wired the fogs for my integra, "grounded" it to a piece of metal, and they didnt' light up...not until i wired them to a different grounding point
