I am confused. I have a set of Warn W650F lights on my JK and they work with the jeep off and the headlights on. However, when I start the jeep and turn on the headlights the fogs will not power on. You can hear the relay but no light. Any ideas? I am about half a second away form chopping up the kit and wiring them up old school, lol.

I hate the kits are they the wireless version because I had all kinds of problems out of mine. And just ended up hardwiring them through a switch and relay.

Sounds like a locomotive we have at work. The Air Conditioning works only with the engine turned off.

Wire it yourself so you know it works correctly.

Forgot to post, the JK has a "smart" power system which shuts the lights off. So you take the small black wire which would tie into the headlights and run it direct to battery. Presto works great. Now I have them up for sale on another forum lol. I like them but want more light such as my daylighters. I will post them for sale here too. Great lights just not the long range that I want.
