Re: Installing OEM Fog lights on 95 Cherokee
Hi Dano,
The relay is in the Power Distribution box next to the battery and
marked in it's cover. Your Stealership has the harness and instructions
if you want it to operate like stock. Bend one of the relay's prongs
over if you want them to work with your high beams. Or just set it up
like KC would:
