Foglight/high beam bypass
 

Hey all. Has anyone figured out how to bypass the foglight shutoff when
you turn the high beams on? This is on an '04 Rubicon. I did it on my
'98 Sport, but all kinds of things are different on this one.

Thanks,

Jay

Hi Jay,
It's still the fog lamp relay inside the main power distribution
fuse box, which is on the passenger side of the engine under the hood.
The relay is clearly marked on a diagram on the inside cover of the main
fuse box. Pull the relay straight up and out of the socket. Carefully
and slowly bend the #1 pin (it's marked) 180 degrees around to the side
of the plastic relay, so it will not make contact with it's female
socket when the relay is re-inserted.

Maybe this will help? I did it on my '03 Sahara and it should work for
the '04 versions too.

Re: Foglight/high beam bypass
 

Pardon my ignorance, but I am wondering what the point is. Why in the heck
is it so popular to modify the circuit so that you can run high beams and
fog lamps simultaneously? Do you not have fog where you live?
