This seems really odd behavior. I found this out today for the first time. Very foggy in Portland but somehow not dark enough to trigger the automatic lights, and I could not figure out why the fog lights wouldn't turn on.
Any update?
This is actually very normal. That’s the whole reason it has a separate setting for turning headlights on manually.
Nope, still have not worked on this
Since I don’t have Aux switches I used the rear for my ditch lights and front for my light bar. I’ve not yet decided if I’m going add the factory switches (I’d prefer that) or Aux beam 8 switch pod and have more circuits available at 1/3 the cost.Finally. Done. Got the front fog light switch going to a pair of amber lights in the front. I added the diode dynamic reverse pod bracket with ssc1 pros. The wiring ties into factory tail/brake reverse lights so when my headlight are on, the red backlight is on low. When I hit brakes, the red gets brighter. When I put it in reverse, the white comes on in full power (zone lighting also turns them on). The kicker is that there’s a separate trigger input to turn on the white lights without being in reverse. I tapped into the white/blue wire in the door sill and ran that to the trigger wire. So I can turn on the white lights without being in reverse by hitting the rear fog light button. And the front/rear fog light icons on the dash work as expected.
Look into the Trigger Six-Shooter - allows you to add switches and circuits without running any wires through the firewall - I had one in my truck that I had prior to the Bronco. it's still sitting in my garage actually LOL .. you can control your circuits either with your phone and/or the wireless rocker switch setup (which operates via bluetooth).
Wow. You win. This is exactly how I would like to get mine setup.Finally. Done. Got the front fog light switch going to a pair of amber lights in the front.

Not sure I’m ready to get that fancy lol. I believe the aux beam setup is just the one cable
has anyone tried this on a bronco yet? in reviewing the comments on the YT video, it sounds like you don't even need to cut the gray wire, you can just jump 1-2.
Good to know the kit comes with the necessary wiring. I plan to either cut some holes in my bumper or upgrade the bumper one of these days to mount a set. Cheers.
