are my highbeams and foglights NOT supposed to come on at the same time....

[ryan roopnarine]

with the motor off? it was the first time in about 9 months that all 6 lamps have had bulbs in them (with the .90 cent kmart bulbs ), and i tried to turn on low+highbeams +fogs with the ignition turned to pre-start (not accessory). when i put the highbeams on, the fogs turned off, and when i took them off, the fogs came back on. i know its quite a drain (60*6 bulbs, roughly). is this supposed to happen?

Hey Ryan,

Whenever high beams are activated the driving / fog lights are deactivated automatically.

That old german logic....why would you use your highbeams in fog? And why would you use foglamps when it's clear out?


They had never met a pontiac driver.

the good ol USA allows only 4 headlingts per vehicke max, thus the disapeering fog lights. Get them all to work at once and enjoy a fat ticket.

Really? So do they not count H + L + F as 6 if 4 are in the same housings? 'Cause I've seen a lot of domestic cars and trucks that don't shut off the fogs when the highs go on....

Yeah, when my high beams go on, the low beams go off. Fogs stay on. At least... I *think* they do... hmm...

I would really like to know so that I can understand all the idiots here in Kansas that love to do this, in town on a clear night.

I hate the people who drive around with their foglights on on clear nights.Even with dipped beams!Dont they realize that they point slightly up?Even worse are the Euro car owners who run round with the rear foglights on!!!!
