Question On Fog Light Mod

I recently bought '05 Accord Coupe with factory fog light. Has anyone rewired the fog light circuit so it comes on with parking lights (just like the mod for TLs)? Do you think I could do the same fog light mod for TL on Accord?

Thanks

I don't see why not. All i did for the mod was moved two wires. Pulled two wires out and then put them in the opposite location.

Here is the link on how to do the mod. It should be the same way for your accord. It's real simple. I do recommend that after you do the mod, when you park at night, turn your headlights off and leave them in parking light mode. Not sure if your Accord has auto shutoff or not. Sometimes with this mod, on the TL's, the right headlight will flicker when you use the key fob to open the door and the lights are on. So, I turn my headlights off before turning the car off, but leave the park lights on with the fogs. So when I come back out, it lights up enough to see.

I tried the mod for TL on Accord, but it didn't work. It seemed like the circuit was quite different. First I tried the exact mod for TL, but ended up blowing parking light fuse. Second I tried to look for line powering the accessary lights, but I couldn't find it. If any of you have some other idea, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Get a test light, ground it. Pull out the fog light switch, turn on the parking lights and see which one gives power to the switch then turn off the parking lights off. Keep testing the wires until you find the one that gives power to the fog light switch and the other one that acutally powers the fog light. Then just switch those two wires that's all

Thanks for the info! I'll give it a try tomorrow.
