DIY: Rear fog light on USDM cars with Front+reart stalk
Im going to write as much as i can before i go to sleep so DIY in progress.
[IMG][/IMG] Here is a video for all the non believers. http://vid1304.photobucket.com/album...pshft3obuf.mp4 I finally got around to writing this To get this working you need some basic electrical skills + soldering and patience and lots of it!!!! well just a little The rear for light on this car is entirely non-existent so everything was done by scratch, Even the BodyEcu will not turn on the rear fog indicator as its disabled. Luckily after months of extensive research and even getting trolled by other members here this was my best solution. The Stalk + Rear for indicator is controlled by ground, therefore i have to run a positive wire from the battery all the way to the back of the car. i'm also debating on if i should make a kit and selling it for a profit or not, as getting this to work took months of studying and trial and error and risking frying my car. this could fund future DIY projects, the kit would most likely not come cheap as copper wiring + fuses + labor takes time. Step 1. For FR-S/BRZ premium Install Front fogs along with stalk/ BRZ limited just install Stalk with Auto function Front +rear fog function Diy Here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34169 before you close everything up, on the socket that connects the stalk i added the a yellow wire, i strip the insulation of the end and stuck it in there and cable tied it to the loom of cables, [IMG][/IMG] Black is Ground, whitish pink is front fog and the newly added yellow is rear fog to check u get a multi meter and put one probe on the wire and one on a ground every time you switch to rear fog you should get continuity. OR you can tap in to the yellow wire on the stalk its the same wire [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] My prototype module broke, but i got a new one, a more DIY friendly one Old [IMG][/IMG] New [IMG][/IMG] Step 2 dissemble the gauge cluster and solder a wire on the negative side of the Indicator. DIY here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58207 [IMG][/IMG] This will all connect to the module, ****************************Unfinished************ ************ ****************************Stay tuned************************
