Went to put driving lights on, i know they work because i took them to a battery. Their not working with a switch to it. All the guages light up (attached to switch) but no driving lights... I even tried it without the guages. Not enough power?
Do you have them on relays? You could be over loading your switch if your using it to pull your regular head lights too
To the aftermarket guages. A hot wire is wired to the switch and then the switch is wired to the guages. Like i said previously, i took the guage wires off and tried it with just the lights.
I donot have it wired to my head lights, just a hot wire and a autozone switch. I will try to wire it to just a hot wire and not a switch tomorrow.
There's a "how many Maverickers does it take to install a lightbulb" type joke here somewhere... I'm with Joe and Bryant, first. Ground is probably why they won't come on. But rthomas771 said the most important thing. Don't just tap an existing circuit somewhere to power those lights, put them on a relay. It's one thing to tap the cluster lighting for instance, to light up some gauges. An extra bulb here and there won't hurt anything, but driving/fog/headlight type bulbs, which are likely halogens, will pull a lot of juice and ruin your day. At best they'll pop a fuse, at worst they will burn a wire somewhere deep inside some impossible to reach wire loom that's adjacent to some other circuits, melting the insulation and causing numerous little gremlins the likes of which one can scarcely imagine, or it might just skip all that and burn your car down. Use a relay. A fuse would be good too. If you bought these driving lights retail as a kit, they probably came with both. If you have nothing else on that circuit and it's going straight to the battery, then make sure your switch is rated for the current the lights will draw, else use a relay or you'll burn that too.
fuse block I think the headlights run off the fuse block without connections to the ignition switch. Make sure your seeing 12volts at both sides of the terminal posts in the fuse box. Then check the switch for power, the yellow wire is constant hot. You can bypass the switch by jumpering power from constant hot to the headlight wire at the plug side. (just consult your wiring chart)
