hi, I am putting in a set of OEM fog lights in my '98 Cherokee and I am using an OEM wiring harness which calls for locating and plugging into the high beam cut off switch....can someone tell me where exactly I will find this switch?....thanks in advance!

Are you talking about the stalk on the left side of the steering column that you pull toward you to switch between high and low beams?

errr, uhhh....apparently, the issues I had when younger regarding reading and following instructions has crossed over into my adult life - LMAO - the switch and plugs I was looking for in my jeep are actually part of the NEW wiring harness and therefor not in my jeep at all!!!....nothing like some sleep, some coffee and REreading the instructions!!....but thanks for your attempted help!

Men don't need instructions when they have a wife to tell them what to do, how to do, when to do, how much to do, with who to do...ect.

LMAO!....the really scary thing is I was actually reading the instructions and trying to go step by step - it's the comprehension part that is a concern....however, the fog lights are in and work great so I musta done somethin right!.....now on to the track bar and steering stabilizer...
