The highs turn off when fogs are on. If you turn fogs on when DRLs are on, the DRLs go out.

OK, I have a question.

I know I need to run a wire from the C1 plug at pin #54 on the PCM inside the car out to the under-hood PDC. This wire is typically a yellow wire.

Could someone PLEASE tell me where it should tap into? I look at diagrams and what not, but none are really helpful. Lucky provided me with a wealth of information, but I am having difficulty deciphering it.


EDIT:
NVM...I'm blind lol

PROBLEM.

On my C1 plug, seen below, there is already a pin receiver in the slot at pin 54!
Does this mean mine is wired differently-or already has the trigger wire installed?
Maybe my fogs don't work now because my relay is in backwards... :/ If this was the case, I would be so happy, you wouldn't believe. I will try flipping it and see what happens.

It's very hard to see in this pic, but in the top row, second hole from the far right (presumably pin 54) there is already a pin connector in place. Unless my orientation is wrong, this would mean there is a circuit made.

Someone please correct me here and tell me what I'm missing.

I installed OEM fogs in my 06 LS way back when I 1st got it. The wire was there. So was the relay. No fuse,switch, or lamps. Made harness from lamps to under hood fuse box, had BCM programed and was good to go. Wife got a 07 LS on 04/17/07 did the same to that one and found out no wire from BCM to relay. Had to add wire and all was good...

I think pin 54 is in the bottom row second from the right. remove the cover off of the conector and you will be able to see small numbers on the body of the conector. I beleive the conector is numbered from the wire end of the connector.

On the other end under the hood C2 means conector C1 means pin number in this picture in would be the big black conector bottom row three pins from the left. from your pic it looks like there is no pin there so that would be your problem.

AHHHH. I see. I'll take another stab at it once I figure out where to acquire the the pins from :)

I'll need the computer pin, and I already have a suitable pin for the PDC.

I'm afraid to remove the cover on the BCM connector, for fear that the pins will come loose. I know they're spurred in there, but im still paranoid lol. I'll suck it up and do it.

You mean this pin.

I got the pin for the body controler from the dealer. remove the back cover the pin pushes through from the back.

Ok. I will contact a dealer for the part. Are my above images correct? What did the pins cost?

Did some digging around. This appears to be the part I need.

I will go to the dealership and ask for part #12084912. That should be sufficient.

UNLESS these are too large...
