How to turn on the running lights and fog lights @ same timewhile/headlights off ...?

I've always liked how some brands have the option to turn on the running lights and fog lights at the same time while the headlights are turned off. Is there a way to change this on the yaris? the fog lights turn on only when the headlights (and fog lights switch is on) are on. Thanks

If your fogs are OEM or are wired via the OEM relay this will allow you to be able to turn them on at will:



Take the wire that is in pin 4 of the headlight stalk (it will be orange, beige or white, depending on year and if you have DRLs) and cut it (leave yourself some room on either side of the cut to be able to work with the wire.

Take the harness side of the cut wire and cap it off.

Take the connector side of the wire and tap it to the white wire in pin 7 (the smaller white wire with the black stripe).

i remember this from 3 years ago. well i just unplugged the DLR relay. Doing that will just turn on the little 194 wedge bulbs and not the headlight, when turning the headlamp switch one tick. its located under the dash, just right of the steering column, if i can remember.

Almost. Connect your red "jumper" to the other side of the cut that you made in the orange wire.

That just means that you hadn't had enough on the first try.
