Factory fog light wiring LS challenger

[BMChallenger]

I’ve searched and can’t find anything...

I have purchased some fog lights to go into my ARB bar and they come with a factory plug. The wiring for fog lights are in behind the bullbar, however I never had foglights in my LS model 2011 challenger.

If the wiring is there, is there a loom connection point or is the switch already in the cabin somewhere I don’t know about?

I want to wire in the fog lights but would like to use the OEM loom if possible.

Thanks guys!

Not a Challenger, but in my Pajero (I’m pretty sure most manufacturers/models are the same) the wiring was there and terminated into a plug near the radiator. All I had to do was buy a factory fog light switch (the factory plug was behind the switch blank on the dash), relay and extend the wiring to the fog lights and it worked as though it rolled off the production line that way. Just be aware that the fog light relay won’t be energised unless the parking lights are on. Hope this helps.

Thank you. I have found the loom, it’s just the switch behind the dash I need to find.

Hi BM,

You have already located the fog light plugs/loom but you also need to power up the circuit in the relay/junction box under the bonnet and then locate the under dash loom that connects to the special lighting stalk that has the integrated fog light switch if you want the complete factory look and installation.
These are the wiring diagrams you need to use;

I believe the ETAC unit is the same across all models so with a bit of luck the dash fog light indicator light might even work (if there is a globe fitted.

The factory fog lamps are one of the best factory fog lamps I have ever used, beam has a very strong horizontal cutoff with a wide even spread and deep penetration.

all you need is a relay to plug into the fuse box next to the battery
and buy a genuine headlight ,blinker switch with the foglight switch
from a pb /pc model that has fog lights as standard
that's how i done mine

Awesome thank you.

So did you buy an indicator stalk with the fog light switch function? Was there a loom you had to search out and plug in behind the dash?

yes just buy a stalk and swap it over
remove covers around switches slide out blinker stalk refit new stalk
its plug and play there's no other plugs its already wired in

Do you have the correct part number for BM?
There a 3 different part numbers listed but they do not detail all the functions of the stalk switch.
PN 8614A215
PN 8614A216
PN 8614A217
They all cost about $120-$140 on the Internet.
Interesting these are a common part number with Triton and Lancer so it maybe possible to get a secondhand unit.

no don't have part number done it years ago
2nd hand would be the go triton ones are the same
otherwise MM parts should be able to get the switch
