relenger · Post by **relenger** » Sun Apr 12, 2009 7:33 pm

So i was looking at the dash out of my 2000 neon and seen there is a hole for a bulb and it say's rear foglight's
So all together there is a highbeam light.
Foglight's (Front) and forlight's for the rear
3 diff dumbie light's.. anyone shine some light on what that's all about??

ALSO the trac light i would like too be able to light (I have a AEM EMS) anyone know what need's to be done to light it? i know i can use justsome wire's and hook them to the bulb but i wanna use the regular harnes if at all possible??

im assuming your talking about the trac light and aem ems?? im sure they wont but if i can figure how to light the bulb then i will wire the bulb to the switch that i will use to turn traction Control on and off with:)

does your ems have an option to turn it on and off with a switch? megasquirt does not.

european cars all have rear fog lights, but they are not fog lights in the sense that you know them to be. it is actually just an extra running light on one corner in the rear. most times, like on my other car, it is on the driver's side.

Yes the aem ems you can turn almost anything on or off with a switch...

Actually, BUX Neons have two rear fogs (see pic below) that are operated by the smart switch on the steering column. Domestic Neons don't have the same wiring harness, unfortunately.

WHOAAAA... never seen a rear end like that

so i wounder if the light is controlled by the ECU or just a on off switch? What is a smart switch?

European Neons have different multiswitches (blinker & lights): They have 2 steps for the fogs. 1st pull for the front and then 2nd turn for the front+rear.

And for both foglights - they have a control light...

Aw, you could have used the pic of my car.

^^I have now saved that pic on my PC so I can reference it in the future.

It would have been a better pic anyway.

Stupid me, I meant "smart stalk", not "switch".

Nope. US, Canada and Mexico only, no BUX SRT-4's.

right - as you can see the lights are aftermarket. ugly stuff to pass inspection. they never offered 2003+ and SRTs in europe - so we have no BUX light setup. My SRT is self-imported and has special permission.
