gonna have to remove that pin from the connector and see if you can re-insert it. if you can, crimp or solder it back in there. then replace the pin into the connector

worst case you can hardwire it....like i said WORST case.

Not a good connection probably.

check fuse it might have blown?

 

[iluvpho]

hm so should i strip some more of the black wire and use the portion of the coil there?

i checked the fuse it was good

so today i put my basic car electronic skills to work. i used a test light to find the source of problem. i opened up my left fog to see if it was the bulb. i found out that inside the fog light itself has a ground and it was loose. i refixed it and it worked. and taht black wire in the picture had NOTHIGN to do with the whole setup. if you disconnect the switch there is only 3 pins. getto fog lights i guess. anyways i just wanted to let u guys know
