Factory fog light wire harness
Does anybody know where where in the factory harness the fog light harness plugs in at? I have a 1995 that was not optioned with fog lights. I installed the new switch & plugged it into the harness in the dash but I dont know where to plug in the light harness at.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks

On late model Cherokees the plugs are hidden behind the bumper immediately above there the fog lights go. Not sure if they're in the same spot on older years though

I'm planning the same option, I modified the original dash panel with the dummy plate and added the factory switch, the four wires were already there to plug into the new switch however the harness termination for the lights behind the grill is only two wires, I'm not wiring genius but I think I'm either missing two wires or their is another termination somewhere behind the grill I'm not finding. Any help?

Those wires only go so far as a large connector also under the dash. The main harness is different. I suggest running your own wires, and using relays

This^ the factory wiring is less than desirable. You will get much better light output by running your own wires with relays. I did this and still used the factory switch.

If anybody is interested I did a write up. I put factory fogs in an '00 XJ that did not have them. Some of the links have died. I plan on revising the write up with part numbers soon. If anybody cares about this and the part numbers just ask here and I will respond.
