This is an STX, I can’t find the fog light switch, all the wiring looks factory.
They are always on? Is this normal for this truck?
Thanks for your time,

Fog light switch should be built in to head light switch, push in for off - pull out for on.

 

The headlight switch is just a normal switch. Could the switch be behind the center radio panel?
Any help would be appreciated.

 

You have to first turn the headlights on... then you can pull the switch to turn on the fog lights.

 

You can get your 2005 Owners Manual here: https://www.ranger-forums.com/genera...1-models-3747/

It will have fuse and Relay layouts, also operations of options

The Fog lights have a relay and fuse in the Engine Bay fuse box
If the relay failed closed then Fog lights would be on all the time, key on or off wouldn't matter

In 2005 there is a button under radio, to the right usually, that activates and deactivates Fog lights, main light switch must be on, in either Park or low beams, high beams automatically deactivate Fog lights, just FYI

Page 37 in manual shows what the button looks like

 

Thank you very much. The fogs go on when the lights are on and go off when I turn them off.
So the button deactivates them permanently.
So 2005 the fog lamps are normally on when the lights come on unless you deactivate them.
thank you again,
Jeff

 

No, the button is an ON/OFF switch, not a toggle, so if you turn the switch OFF the fog lights will stay off all the time

But yes, the main light switch needs to be on for the Fog Lights to work, i.e. for the ON/OFF switch to turn them on, and Fog lights would go off if you turn main light switch off, even if button was on

 

Your headlight switch must be on for the fog lights to come on. If the headlights are off, then no fog lights. They should turn off when you turn on the high beams.
