new to jeepkj need fog light help

To whom ever can help,
I just joined, i have a 2004 jeep liberty 2001 jeep cherokee, and my step dad has a 2007 jeep liberty.

07 liberty, never had fog lights and my step dad wanted them. so i went to pull a part got a set and added them to the jeep. i added a relay under the steering wheel, also checked the fuses to make sure they are there. i changed the steering wheel column if u call it that. i put the turn signal switch in that has a fog light knob pull out. after all this they dont work.

i used a continuity tester, it only shows power in the wiring in 2 lines. i cant get a 3rd line to power up when i put the fog lights on.

so my question is do i need to wire something from under the steering wheel or can i move a wire in the connector at the fogs?

ps from the the new turn signal switch there is a wire in the new spot for the fog light switch, the fog light light turns on when u pull the knob out. im just not sure if there is a wire going from the relay block under the steering wheel to the connector by the driver side front lights.

so do i need to add a wire or move a wire around????

thanks

pss i was going to check the wiring on my 04 liberty and c how it matches the 07, since i already have fog lights in that jeep.

ok so i investigated some more. i found a white with yellow stripe wire is not getting power. but when i pull the fog light switch it lights up on dash but no power goes thru the line.
so is it a programming issue or something else???

Does the icon on the dash light up when you activate the fog lights?

Are you sure the relay is good, and that it is in the right place?

check for fuse 19 in the fuse block inside the passenger compartment. should be a 20A fuse.

there's the instructions from the OEM add-on kit. that should help.

From my experience doing the same thing:

icon lights up
relay is good, 99% sure its in the right spot
i checked the 19 spot fuse 20A, and its good

profdlp,
i read that article you posted, the only 2 things i have not done are ask if it needs to be programmed, and put a fuse in the fuse panel by the battery.
the reason i have not put a fuse/relay in the fuse panel by the battery is cuz there is not a spot. i did add a 30A fuse in the fuse by the battery bcuz my 04 liberty had 1 there.

im stuck now trying to get power to the white & yellow stripe wire going from the the relay under the steering wheel to the the connect under the front driver side lights.
i'm think it might need to be programmed...

profdlp, that link u posted i found in the pst was probably the most helpful to dated.
so thanks for posting that

At this point, I would be checking the following:

1) Is the stalk you got good?
2) Are you tapped into the right wire(s) under the hood?

Their silly picture-book instructions they give you had me scratching my head a few dozen times as I went through mine. (Which has been four-and-a-half years ago, now.) That might be fine as a refresher if you had done a few of them before. Not so great for a first-timer.

I mean, even this set of instructions has some words:

My foggy memory is telling me I had issues too at some point, and is telling me it had something to do with the relay. let me go check the relay location.

eta: ok, I can't look at the relays. forgot there's a cover in the way and I ain't taking the jeep apart right now.
try all the different relay openings in the block though. my corrupted storage unit is saying something about the directions being wrong in that regard.

Before I start a new thread on this same subject could the OP or anyone else specifically a few things so I know I can go to Pull a Part and get a set of fog lights working on an 07 w/o them?

So if I pull the grill I can pull the fog lights and I should pull the entire wiring harness from the donor liberty, correct? This will be a direct plug in on the 07 w/o fogs as far as the upfront wiring goes, correct? Now pull the stalk as well by removing the steering cover, no problem, drops right back into the other Liberty. Pull the relay panel and grab which relay?

At that point all should work?

You'll need the lights (duh), the stalk w/ the fog light switch, and the relay. That's it.

The wiring ties into the headlight harness area so the wires you pull don't have to be extraordinarily long. Follow them up to where they tap in and cut there, pretty much within a foot or so of the grill.

I hate cutting into any wiring harness though. Would it not make more sense to get the entire donor harness from lights to wherever it plugs in? I assume the front harness only goes back so far before it hits some sort of junction connection so they can use multiple front harnesses but only one master bus?

Well, since I added mine after the fact I would have no idea what a factory setup would look like. I'd study the instructions, then make the call when you're at the junkyard.

Is there any update on this, I just added fog lights to mine. and i am having the same issue. Made a wiring harness, added it to the wire that the instructions indicated. When i use the stalk to activate the lights, the light on the dash turns on, but the fog lights do not light up. I replaced the fuse in slot 19. but still nothing.

pcm needs programmed, i think. not certain of it,

^^^ This is true when adding fogs to the 08. It needs a reflash at the dealer to enable the fogs. Since the 07 is a transition year, it may have some of the same computer bits as my 08.

BCM (body computer), engine computer would have nothing to do with it. This is only necessary on CAN bus vehicles.
