The fsm shows the relay in the pdc under the hood on a "97"', but i was talking to someone just last night on the phone who said he had a "97" and his pdc was like a "98" model and the relay was to the right of the fuse box behind the glove box....so it could be either place.Have a 97 with factory fog lights. The fuse is good with power but I have no power at the rocker switch . could it be a bad relay and if so where would that be located ?
My 99 also has the two relays. I'm not sure why this one didn't match. The fsm was downloaded from jeepsunlimited, and I'm aware of several wiring changes between 97 and 98.Sure that is not the FSM labeled as 97 that is really a 2002 as indicated by the vin ID portion and the 4.0 with a coil rail and 4 oxygen sensors
I know for sure my 98 has two relays for fog behind glove box and one in PDC on 2004
Digger,Fog lights only get power with low beam headlights no power without headlights or with high beams
2 relays involved and mounted as a pair behind the glove box inside the cab
The reason that your fog lights won't illuminate with the lights off has to do with the mechanics of the switch, not wiring. Electrically speaking, your fog lights can operate independently. Plenty of 2001-2006 TJ owners have learned that when their fog light switch failed to the "on" position and drained their battery while parked.Digger,
Either your TJ is wired different or, maybe there's a change in certain model years. My factory fog lights will light up, with the parking lights on. I rotate the MFS one click and, that's the parking lights. Then, I pull on the MFS and, the fogs come on. Then, rotate it once more and, the headlights come on.

Yep, you guys are right. The supposedly "97" fsm I had was actually a "2003". Thanks for the education....:thumb:WD I think they corrected that a while back but at one time they did have one from either a 2002 or 2003 (can’t recall but Digger is probably right). At the beginning of the manuals there is a decoding chart & the 10th digit is the yr & each yr manual shows the “current” yr which was proof it was the wrong one posted for 1997. The 1998 manual is quite close to the 1997s with a few differences here & there.
Whoops, my bad. That's what happens when you think you know without checking the diagram.Relays come after the switch. They do not affect power getting there.
Headlight switch needs to be on low beams or parking, not highs.
Check for power coming out of the headlight switch. You'll need the wiring diagrams to get the color code.
