[DenNut]

can you post a picture of what you got so I can verify and then order ... thanks!

I just successfully wired up my fog lights using the factory harness (Mod HD bumper, wiring behind plastic cover) and the following Forscan configurations... can someone tell me what the last line below does (I did follow it and made the re-config.):

BdyCM CONFIG
Front fog lamps - change this to "Enabled".
Fog Lamp Switch - change this to "Enabled"
Using Front Fog With High Beam - "Allowed" ("Bambi" mode)

IPC CONFIG
Front fog lamps - change this to "Enabled"

BdyCM (As-Built Configuration)
726-42-01-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx - Change the green value (the middle-4) to 0101

Thanks.

Is there consensus that rear sensors contain a rear fog light harness (I have the LUX package)? I ordered my new headlight switch with a rear fog light button, and I'd like the button to possibly power some chase/ditch lights in the back.

Connected my Oracle Fogs this morning, using the DT 2-pin to MX150 pigtails.
So easy! Saved me having to do any splicing/soldering.
Few minutes with Forscan, and I'm all set.

What light assembly switch did you use with the lux package? I’m seeing that the M2DZ-11654-DB is for front fog lights and puddle lights, but no blind spot monitoring. I bought the Oracle fog lights and am hoping to connect to the factory switch assembly on my OBX with Mod bumper. Thanks for sharing that the DT 2-pin works!

It’s a separate harness, but the other option is to tap into factory wiring. See https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...ase-light-using-factory-switch-harness.46382/

I am still trying to get the part number for the wiring harness for those with Standard Package and Modular Bumper that DON'T have the wiring behind the tow hooks. Any insight there? Consensus is that the wiring is at the switch but terminates at C203, correct?

M2DZ-15K867-E is the part for steel bumper with sensors. Could ignore the sensors or try to add them in as well.

Amazing! Thanks. So, in theory that plugs into C203 and includes C192? Or is this part just from C192 to the sensors/fogs? If so, I think I need the following section as well.

That's just the bumper harness that would plug into C192

Well, that is one piece of the puzzle. Great! Now, just need the piece that goes from 203 to 192. Then, we are in business. I have been sitting on a switch for almost a year...

This may have been covered, but I didn't see it after scanning through the numerous pages:
does anyone know if the factory foglight switch will be able to handle the amp draw of these pocket lights in the mod bumper? https://zroadz.com/i-23915778-2021-...z-amber-led-pod-lights-part-z325401-kita.html

The switch does not power any lights, it's merely a control and basically sends signals to control a relay elsewhere.

thanks! so, the relay that powers this plug can handle the amperage?

If this hasn't been linked yet... found someone demonstrating popping down the dash if you're swapping out the switch panel

And TascaParts had the dash switch panel about 40% cheaper than the Ford dealership

To Go even further, it isn't even really a relay that supplies the power to the circuit, It's the Body Control Module, "BCM".

You might be overtaxing it if you try to drive all 6 of them at once from the OEM Plugs... That's 6x20 Watts per pod is 120 Watts total, 120W/12V = 10 Amps.

The Factory Fog lights are also LED, and though I couldn't find the spec anywhere, I'd guess they are also about 20 Watts each, so roughly 40 Watts total. Rigid makes a set of OEM Replacememnts, Also 40 Watt total draw...

If you want some of them running on the OEM switch and wiring,, I think I'd stick to just one pod on each side through the OEM setup, and run the other 4 off an Aux switch...
