Fog lamp switch part number YUG000320LNF

Hello landy zone folk I am wiring some spot lights into my freelander and want to use a landrover fog lamp switch (part number is in title) does anyone know which of the five prongs I need to tap onto. Here is a picture of the back of the switch.....



There numbered 1 2 3 4 5, any help would be appreciated.

not sure if this helps, but the corresponding colours on the LR loom are as follows:

1) Red & Orange
2) Red & Black
3) Not Used
4) Red & Slate
5) Black

The four cable functions will be as follows, but not sure which way round:

a) 12v feed in
b) 12v switched feed out
c) earth
d) back illumination (instrument light)

the led on the switch which indicates when it is switched on is a function of the switch and does not have it's own feed from the loom.

there is a LR loom for this which plugs directly into socket C591 on the back of the fuse board; plugging into this socket can only be done by touch as it is impossible to see, never mind try to connect to.

good luck

Thank you sir you are a gentleman and a scholar.

truly a pleasure.

just been called out on a fault call, so rest of my evening taken care of.

if you don't get any joy, give us a shout back and I'll trace which one is which with a multimeter.

Hello again any chance of doing that and posting the results on this thread I had had a mess around but not got anywhere and don't really want to damage the switch or my cars electrics. Cheers O P

leave it with me, you'll have the answer by the end of the weekend

Top man, thankyou.

Any joy O P?

reet, not quite as simple as it would originally seem,

pins 1 & 2 have a switched 12v feed onto them whenever the sidelights are turned on
pins 1 & 4 are the switched pair, that is to say, when the switch is on, 1 & 4 become linked internally in the switch
pins 3 & 5 are permanently internally linked irrespective of the switch position
pins 4 & 5 seem to have 0v on them.

NOW, THIS IS ONLY MY THOUGHTS ON THE MATTER BASED ON WHAT I HAVE FOUND, IF YOU DECIDE TO FOLLOW THIS IT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK

pin 1 is feed to switch, which then gets passed onto pin 4 when switch is in on position
pin 2 is instrument / illumination light
pin 3 is not used
pin 4 see pin 1
pin 5 earth

truly good luck, fog lights are protected by 15A fuse, it will need a relay too. this all comes as part of the kit normally, and has the relevant places in the loom / fuseboard to take them. however there is no reason that the lights cannot be wired in using the switch "old school" style by breaking in to relevant circuit.

from what I have tested, I don't think the lighting functions are controlled by the ecu, it's just a handy place to plug the header in.

truly good luck with this, let us know how it goes.

Thankyou mate, your a great help, will post results at the weekend.
