So as many of you know we sell some of the best fog kits for these Broncos. A lot of customers are upgrading their plastic/capable bumper over to a modular bumper and are curious to know

"Can I connect my new fogs on my modular bumper to my old fog light switch?"

The answer is YES. If your truck had a plastic/capable bumper with factory fogs and you are upgrading to a modular bumper you SURE CAN utilize your factory fog switch. BUT you'll need a new pigtail.

We make a few different pigtails. Plastic/Capable bumpers AND Modular Bumpers. You need to make sure you order the CORRECT HARNESS.

There IS a difference. We'll go over the pigtails that we offer for plastic/capable bumper trucks AS WELL AS Modular Bumper trucks.

IMPORTANT NOTE
If your truck came with a plastic/capable bumper and you decide to upgrade to a Modular bumper DO NOT buy the "Modular" pigtails. YES, we know you now have a modular bumper but your factory wiring is that of a plastic/capable bumper.

Also. IF you upgrade to a modular from a plastic/capable MAKE SURE you take your wiring harness OFF your old bumper and transfer it to your NEW bumper. That's VERY important.

Many customers don't realize you'll need to keep your factory harness which is ATTACHED to the bumper. There is a connector on the driver side underneath the headlight that is plugs into.

So keep that in mind. Just because you upgraded to a modular bumper does NOT mean you buy "pigtails" for a modular bumper... because you still have a plastic/capable bumper wiring harness.

Don't forget you can grab one of our fog kits here as well as a pigtail for your truck: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/vehicle-specific/ford/ford-bronco/2021-bronco/

Our fog kits INCLUDE a harness to connect everything to an upfitter but as I said, if you want to utilize your existing fog light switch you can do that as well by picking up the right pigtail below:


PLASTIC/CAPABLE BUMPER TRUCKS
If the truck came with fogs from the factory, the connector is H11. We sell the following pigtails

CrystaLux WP 2-Pin to H11 Pigtail, Pair (2021+ Ford Bronco w/Plastic or Capable Bumper)
These are for lights that utilize a WP 2-Pin Connector (Baja Designs)

Diode Dynamics Deutsch DT Adapter Wires, H11/H8/H9/800/881 (Pair)
These are for Lights that utilize a DT 2-Pin connector (Diode Dynamics SS3 without backlighting)

Diode Dynamics Deutsch DT Adapter Wires w/Backlight Tap, H11/H8/H9/880/881 (Pair)
These are for lights that utilize a DT 4-Pin Connector (Diode Dynamics SSC1, SSC2 and SS3 with back lighting)

https://www.4x4truckleds.com/diode-...wires-w-backlight-tap-h11-h8-h9-880-881-pair/

NOW, with that out of the way... onto the topic at hand.

MODULAR BUMPERS
The factory pigtail will be under the tow hook. Remove the plastic shroud around the tow hook and look inside that opening, on the bottom. You'll see the connector taped in there. This has a DUMMY PLUG on it. Soo make sure you remove that dummy plug. Then you can utilize FORSCAN to enable the circuit AND buy the proper fog light switch (lots of info in here about that).

We offer a bunch of different pigtails for this as follows:

CrystaLux WP 2-Pin to MX150 Pigtail, Pair (2021+ Ford Bronco w/HD Modular Bumper)
These are for WP 2-Pin lights (like the Baja Designs)

https://www.4x4truckleds.com/crysta...il-pair-2021-ford-bronco-w-hd-modular-bumper/
1702582036315.webp


CrystaLux DT 2-Pin to MX150 Pigtail, Pair (2021+ Ford Bronco w/HD Modular Bumper)
These will be for DT 2-Pin connector lights (such as the Diode Dynamics SS3 without back lighting)

https://www.4x4truckleds.com/crysta...il-pair-2021-ford-bronco-w-hd-modular-bumper/
1702582064965.webp


CrystaLux DT 4-Pin to MX150 Pigtail, Pair (2021+ Ford Bronco w/HD Modular Bumper)
Finally these have a DT 4-pin connector (Diode Dynamics SSC1, SSC2 and SS3 with backlighting)

https://www.4x4truckleds.com/crysta...il-pair-2021-ford-bronco-w-hd-modular-bumper/

If you have the DT 4-pin pigtails, you'll have a control wire hanging off the harness. This is for the back-light. Many of our customers simply tap this wire onto their man fog light harness (as they usually get a triple fog light kit from us). This way you don't have to run any wires anywhere. Tap the purple wire on the pigtail onto the backlight control wire on the triple fog light harness from us.

I set my fog lights to turn on with the turn signals. I have lights in my wheel well that I would like to come on also. I have the capable bumper. Do you have a harness that would split off each fog light to power them?
