The fog lamps can be turned on by the fog lamp switch only when the parking lamps are on and the high beam headlamps are off.The headlamp switch supplies battery positive voltage to the fog lamp switch and the fog lamp relay contacts, when the headlamp switch is in the PARK or HEAD position. The fog lamp relay coil is grounded thought the inactive high beam headlamps. When the fog lamp switch is place in the ON position, battery positive voltage is applied to the coil side of the fog lamp relay, energizing it. When the fog lamp relay energizes, the relay contacts close and it supplies battery positive voltage to fog lamps. The fog lamps are grounded at G 105 and G 106.
