- Preparation: Ensure the vehicle is turned off and cool. Gather all necessary tools.
- Remove Existing Fog Lights: Carefully remove the original fog lights from their housing.
- Mount New LED Fog Lights: Install the Auxbeam LED Fog Lights into the existing fog light openings. Use the provided screw fitting set to secure them.
- Connect Wiring:
- Fog Light Connection: Connect the main fog light wiring using the provided adapter wiring. This is typically a direct plug-and-play connection.
- DRL (Daytime Running Light) Connection:
- If your vehicle's headlight comes with a DRL wire, connect the white DRL extension cord to the DRL wire from the headlight.
- If your vehicle does not have a dedicated DRL wire, use a fuse tap (not included) to connect the DRL extension cord to an ignition-switched fuse in the fuse box (e.g., ignition fuse, cigar lighter fuse, or other suitable fuse). A 10A or 20A fuse is typically appropriate.
- Turn Signal Connection: Connect the yellow turn light extension cord to the vehicle's existing turn signal wire.
- Adjust Light Angle: Locate the adjustment screw on the top of the fog light. Rotate this screw to adjust the light beam angle according to your vehicle's height and desired visibility.
- Test Functionality: Turn on the vehicle and test all light functions: fog lights, DRL, and turn signals.

Operating the Lights
The Auxbeam LED Fog Lights offer multiple lighting modes:
- Fog Light: Provides a focused beam for improved visibility in adverse weather conditions. Activated via your vehicle's standard fog light switch.
- DRL (Daytime Running Light): The special angle eye design functions as a DRL, enhancing vehicle visibility during daylight hours. This function activates automatically when wired correctly.
- Turn Signal: The integrated turn signal function provides amber illumination when the vehicle's turn signals are activated, increasing signaling visibility.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Clean the polycarbonate lens regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap solution to maintain optimal light output. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Inspection: Periodically check the wiring connections for any signs of wear or corrosion. Ensure the lights are securely mounted.
- Breathing Hole: The lights are equipped with breathing holes to prevent moisture buildup. Ensure these are not obstructed.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Lights do not turn on | Loose wiring connection, blown fuse, incorrect wiring. | Check all wiring connections. Inspect vehicle's fuse box for blown fuses and replace if necessary. Verify wiring against installation instructions. |
| DRL or Turn Signal not working | Incorrect DRL/turn signal wiring, fuse issue. | Re-check DRL and turn signal extension cord connections. Ensure fuse tap (if used) is correctly installed and fuse is functional. |
| Moisture inside the lens | Normal condensation (breathing hole function), or seal issue. | Small amounts of condensation are normal and should dissipate. Ensure breathing holes are clear. If excessive or persistent, contact support. |
| Light beam is too high/low | Improper light angle adjustment. | Adjust the light angle using the screw on the top of the fog light housing. |
