If not, the park lights turn on the usual way and the low beam units do not have the city lights activate. I prefer to have the city lights work.

I think the Euro switch is the same switch in the US models, but the wiring on the fuse box will be different. The Euros are wired so the fogs tap the park lights, so there is no need for the low beams to be on to have power to the fogs. The US, on the other hand, taps power from the low beams. This is also why when the US high beams are turned on, the fogs turn off, because they tap the low beam, which consequently turn off also. In the Euro models, you can have the high beams but also have the fogs, because the park lights, which the Euro fogs tap power from, do not switch off when high beams are selected. |
I tried searching, but this is the only post that comes close.
Thank you for the information, especially on the fog lights. We do get dust storms and heaven forbid I am in one, it be nice just to have fogs alone, I would think?
What are city lights and how do they differ from low beam headlights? I can't imagine it is just taking power from the parking lights to the headlights, as you mentioned a 4 watt bulb, so where is it?
Thanks in advance!
