    I have a 2013 Prostar, I just swapped out the OEM lower bumber and installed a Magnum moose bumper. The new bumber dosent have fog lights in it and the old lower one did so i bought a pair of nice driving lights but when i am trying to wire them there is no power going to the plugs that are there from the factory. i turn the switch on the dash and it dosent illuminate so im guessing somewhere there is a breaker/fuse that is tripped/blown. where is the first place i need to look for this?

    You do know that the fog lights turn off when your high beams are on right? Also, you have to have your regular headlights on too.

    They are prepared for heavy fog. The foreseeing is most important.

    Key on and headlights on/low beam for fog lights to work.

    got it fixed. moose bumpers dont have fog lights but we use the fog light switch to wire high powered lights to run at night to spot swamp donkeys here.

    I have mine aimed low and to the sides a bit to light up the suicidal deer. I turn them off behind other trucks or oncoming trucks same as high beams.
