Fog Light connection to Auxiliary Switch ?

[HEMIDUTY]

I am going to wire the aftermarket fog lights to the aux switch. My question is the aux fuse box has relays for the aux switches already and my fog light wires also has a relay, would it make sense to eliminate the relay on the fog light wires being there is already one in the aux fuse box? Thanks

Yes, you only need to run one relay/fuse for your installation.

I thought so, thank you for verifying that !

That’s the beauty of the Aux switches. It’s all there for ya. Just run the wire out of there to the lights, ground them and you’re done.

Just don’t forget to change the fuse for the switch you use to match what you’re running.

I haven't had any luck finding fuses smaller than 20A. 2 of my circuits only need 3-5A fuses.

I haven’t looked for smaller fuses than 20 amp, I probably should have a 15 amp on one of mine, but the other 2 required a 20 amp…

Late bump for clarity:

In this case, where you are utilizing the Aux switches and built in relays, but the accessory calls for a smaller fuse, would a inline small fuse be good?

That would work, I personally prefer to just change out the factory fuse rather than add another fuse in a fused line.
