I never noticed until after swapping LED fog lights for stockers. When the high beam is on, the fog lights turn off. Just thought this was odd.

I know in PA that is the law. only 2 forward facing white lights at a time. They used to get all of the kids that added fog lights with this law. Pull them over, and have them turn on the high beams. If the fogs didn't turn off, it was a ticket.

Usually a standard feature in all vehicles.

In my Camaro, the fogs are on with the halos and considered DRLs. Flip on the actual headlights, and they go off. A lot of owners wire so the fogs run continuous. Ive seen on here SyTy owners do the same, but it's been many years since Ive seen a thread on it.

That's law almost everywhere. My fog lights have a 3rd switch position that keeps them on whenever my brights are on

Had a Subbie that was missing a foglight and had to remove the one for inspection because if they're present and don't work, you can fail inspection. It was easier and cheaper to remove it than buy a new one from the dealership.


Is SyTy back??!! I think this is the first thread to 5 posts in a long time! :syty: :woot: :squint:

Funny when you notice stuff like that. I remember when I noticed that the stock wheels where in the same pattern from left to right.Thought it was pretty lame but apparently not uncommon.

You also wouldn't use your high beams when their was fog.

I think it's standard on most cars with fog lights. It was the same on my 93 S10.

When I was running stock headlights, fogs would be on at the same time. Then I swapped the headlights to xenon/hid's and fogs to LED, now the fogs only stay on when low/hi beams are off. I think I'm gonna wire the fogs directly.
