Default fog light switch....

I have a fog lamp switch in my 85 GT. From what i understand, this was stock? Is this true. They currently arn't working because the previous owner must have played around and hacked wires, but if this was a stock switch then im guessing there is a spot for it in the fuse panel. Can anyone tell me which fuse it is because i don't have a diagram. Thanks in advance.

the fogs on all the foxes are crap.
you can pop the switch cluster out to see if it has been tampered with. but to my knowledge the factory wires were to small and frequently overheated.
your best bet is to do a fog light rewire, if your decent at cut,splice,soldering and all that it should take a genius to figure out how to rewire, if not ithink corral has a rewire DYI.

Not sure which fuse, but yes the fog is on a seperate panel under the dash with an indicator.Best I can remember 2 wires. I'd just pull a hot somewhere under the dash and use the factory switch to trigger a relay and run new wires to the lamps.

Ya thats probably what im going to do. Would it be a bad decision to just run a power to the battery with an inline fuse?

you could do that i jumped mine from the parking lights that way they can't be left on as long as you turn off head lights but any how here's a diagram for a 90 model maybe it's the samehttp://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...epanel0001.jpg

The diagram that p1bigun linked you to for his 90 has the fuse in a different location than my 89 GT. I thought I'd let you know this before you pull a fuse and decided its good only to find out you've pulled the wrong fuse.
