Fog Lights on with High Beams MOD 2014-2019 Silverado Sierra Tahoe Yukon Suburban | AnthonyJ350

Worked like a charm, great video. Thanks, Mark Penticton BC

[@AnthonyJ350]

Glad it helped!

[@PrimeGuy03]

For the diode, 3A 100V or 50V?

[@AnthonyJ350]

It would be a 12 volt application.

[@pmarcil62]

Will 5w 12v diodes work?

[@AnthonyJ350]

That's probably too small to handle the current.

[@RelentlessLegacy2020]

what do u think about a 10a diode?

[@AnthonyJ350]

Sure if you have one that big.

[@luisparada4694]

I had a question about die electric grease, I thought it would get in the way of current if it's in between the contact points? Thanks

[@stealthg35infiniti94]

Use dielectric grease in all Automotive connections if possible to minimize corrosion...The oring seals over time fail to keep out moisture/humidity thus corrosion sets in to the contact pins... The dielectric grease encapsulates the connection preventing air to corrode the connection.

[@AnthonyJ350]

It's kind of an old wives tail that it makes the connection worse. If you use actual dielectric grease the one property people forget about is its ability to displace. So the contacts still make a good connection but it acts like a protective membrane around it.

[@stealthg35infiniti94]

I agree, the Fog lights help with peripheral lighting when using high beams ...Since my low beams stay on when the high beams are on, I connected the relay to the aftermarket fog lights to the low beams...So now ,Fog lights are ON when Low or High beams are in use..

[@AnthonyJ350]

Nice

[@mattjones2705]

So on my 2018 Silverado the "brown with white tracer" is all brown. There is a brown with white wire but it is not where they said to tap in... With that said, I followed the instructions and paid less attention to the wire color and more of what slot the wires were in. Kit worked great, looking forward to using it on the wide open county roads.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Thanks for sharing!

[@jewllake]

very clean install. Looking to do this once my warranty runs out.

[@AnthonyJ350]

Do it now! If you wire it like this they'll have no idea. My friends trucks had remote starters installed and their scan tool can't detect it.

[@columbotee2652]

@@AnthonyJ350 You can also do this by pushing the diode wires directly in where the electrical wires go into pin connector no additional wires need to be involved.

[@AnthonyJ350]

@@columbotee2652 But this way looks cleaner with it being hidden and integrated. Just shoving a diode in doesn't look good to me.

[@ElHadesss]

work on Chevy traverse 2014??

[@AnthonyJ350]

If you can find the same wires, maybe.

[@dh66]

What is that wiring harness tape called?

[@AnthonyJ350]

Exterior TESA

[@kikcodog]

Awesome mod. Do you know if the pinout is the same for a '12 silverado?

[@AnthonyJ350]

It's going to be slightly different I believe.

[@g.fortin3228]

Thats great ! One more idea. In thick fog on an older vehicle I had installed aftermarket fogs on, on occasion I'd use them alone with parking lights so the regular low or high beams not on and it worked well at times. I'd like to know how to get factory fogs to come on alone for those occasions. Nissan Pathfinder, 2011. An idea for a video :- )

[@AnthonyJ350]

Most factory vehicle you should be able to just turn on the parking lights then just turn on the factory fogs with them using the switch.

[@Leatherkid01]

On newer GMs ... just press the fog light button and the parking lights will come on as well ....(starting from 2003 models so far i know) 😉 On older models ....what Anthony said. On older fords, u need to jump the switch (a few vids on those on YT)

[@Truthloveliberty]

4 minute video for a 1 minute explanation and or install

[@AnthonyJ350]

B.S. you can find the wires and install it that nice in 1 minute. Never understood why people take the time to complain like this. You're lucky people like us take time to give you free information that you don't know how to figure out on your own.

[@Leatherkid01]

Where did you get that circuit diagram from?

[@AnthonyJ350]

Online subscription wiring database.

[@darylsparks-sparksautomoti6066]

I hope that everyone recognized that while seeing clearly at night, it's also important not to impede the vision of oncoming traffic with high intensity lights AND in most states, it is illegal to not observe this safety concern

[@AnthonyJ350]

That's correct, you should not have your high beams on when traffic is approaching.
