Need some help with my 2nd OEM fog switch
So the relay went out for the 2nd OEM switch I have on my dash for my PIAA's...
And the relay I used wasn't a conventional relay with the prongs on the bottom. It came attached with a pigtail that doesn't come off..
So I need help re-wiring it. I know someone told me before when I first set it up that it's a double grounded switch...
Off the switch I have 2 wires that run out to the engine bay that go to the relay. What do they go to on a regular 4-prong relay?
Need a pin-by-pin instruction on how that sets up..
Thanks guys!

I stole this from Bob (rwenzing). It's how I wired mine, and it works flawlessly.
OEM switch:
pin 1 unused
pin 2 unused
pin 3 LB/BK from relay coil to switch contacts
pin 4 BK chassis ground
pin 5 LB/RD Night illumination power
pin 6 TN/OR Hot from foglamp power wire for "ON" LED
Relay:
pin 30- to fused 12v constant
pin 85- to pin 3 on OEM switch
pin 86- to switched 12v (keyed, headlights, etc)
pin 87- to aux lights (also tap in a 5amp fused line to pin 6 on the OEM switch
I have a diagram Bob gave me, but I can't post it here. If you still have problems, PM me your email, and I'll send it to you.

Turned out it was just a fuse. ****. lol Oh well, gave me a chance to re-wire the setup I had in there and seal it up nice and tight like!
Now here's my question. With that setup, double grounded switch, how will I get that LED to indicate it's on? the indicator works, I tried both harnesses on both switches and it seems when I have the harness on that goes to the relay for the PIAA's the light doesn't light up. But does when I hook up the harness for my HID's... (When the HID harness is on the upper switch for the PIAA's the light works, and when the harness for the PIAA's is on the HID switch the indicator doesn't light).
Anyone know what is going on?
