Well I bought my car with the starter hot wired to the TOP fog light button. Well tonight I discovered under that button, another fog light button. If you push it while the dims are on, the fog lights will come on AS LONG AS YOU HOLD IT DOWN. If you let go of it, they shut off. How can I get my fog lights to come on with my dims? You can hear it "click" when you push the button.

Don't know, but in case you're unclear, the fog lights should only be able to turn on while the main beams (not brights) are on. If they turn on at any other time, something is strange. If the main beams ARE on, then the fogs should be able to stay on until the main beams turn off.

yes trevor, I understand and know how they work, im just saying that on my 1g I have 2 fog lights switches. The top one is wired up as a push button starter, the second one turns on my fog lights. But in order to have my fog lights on I have to HOLD the button down.

Drives: 1996 Talon AWD. Built, but no longer drives: 1997 mitsubishi eclipse RS; 1990 Talon AWD; 1995 Talon AWD, 1997 Talon AWD. Seems like a pattern
are they the stock foglights or you are wiring in aftermarket ones?
