i have an 01 x sport and the only auxilary lights on it are the aftermarket pilot lights mounted to the grill guard. there are no jumpers in the panel under the air intake box, but there is the pilot relay box mounted elsewhere. i cant find out how to bypass the high-beam switch that shuts off my fogs, i want them to beam either way...how do i do this--considering i have an aftermarket set up?????

Instead of running the power (trigger) wire to the relay from the low beam, tap it into the parking light circuit.
 






hey thanks man, that did the trick!!
i appreciate the feedback!
 






hey whats up? i didn't quite understand what you were supposed to do on that. can you go into detail for me please?
 






He had it triggered so that the lows turned on the Pilots; a splice from one of the low beam wires acted like a switch on the Pilot relay.

Switching to a parking lamp wire has the Pilots on whenever those are on, thus the Pilots don't shut off with the high beams anymore (as the low beams do).
 






OK I GOT IT. GONNA TRY IT THIS WEEKEND ON MINES WILL GET BACK TO YOU AND LET YOU KNOW HOW IT TURNS OUT. THANKS
