FOG LIGHT SWITCH FOR 2017 BRZ

I recently installed the Winjet fog light kit on my BRZ Premium and I noticed all the OEM wiring harness is already on the car. I went ahead and used the winjet wiring and switch. Do any of you know if I can use the winjet switch with the OEM harness? I tried taping into the black & yellow/ white & grey wires using the winjet switch but NO CIGAR.
I also followed the following video:



Here are pictures of the wiring. The winjet is red, yellow and black.



OEM fog light wiring(as shown on video):

So I got a kit off of eBay. I have a 2017 Toyota 86 and luckily the pre wiring fits they headlights... I needed some hardware to mount, but that’s not a big problem. Anyway the two wires in the video are pretty much the hot and neutral. The other wires may be for dimming (I really don’t know). But a 2 way switch should work, just get some wire taps like the video and hook it up to your 2 way switch of choice. I hope that helps.

You should be able to get a switch off ebay. I did from another toyota.

Do not just use a 2 pole switch. Half of the wires are for button illumination, the other half are for fog light power/control. A 2 pole switch will short the illumination portion.

Did you check that the fuses exist in either fuse box?
