In a 2005 is there a way to make the FOGS stay on all the time?

Answer If there is a way please don't do it. Remember the FOGS as you call them are still two additional lights that oncoming cars have to deal with at night. Answer Put a piece of electrical tape over the daytime running lights sensor. The headlights will automatically be turned on when you start the car. You can now push the button to turn on your Fog lights and they will stay on while you are driving. You can also pull the knob out to the first position to turn on parking/indicator lights only and your fog lights will still be able to work. Your daytime running lights will be off.

Why do your auto 4wd lights all light up on dash no soft or hard codes?

Im assuming these turn of after startup. When the alternator isn't running, these lights automatically come on. Your alternator doesn't start running until your car is running, because it is run by a belt from your engine. So, if your lights stay on after startup, either you have a snapped alternator belt or your alternator is buggered. We had our alternator belt snap the other day while we were driving down a hill, it was quite a scary experience as we didn't know what was going on and in automatics the breaks barely work without the alternater running.


How do you turn off headlights in a 1998 Oldsmobile silhouette when it is running?

You can only turn off the headlights by applying the emergency brake. When the emergency brake is on, the headlights will not light. Otherwise the best of my expererience is that they are on all the time. If you have remote start, put the emergency brake on before you leave the vehicle and when you remote start it, the headlights will not be on, but the driving lights (if switch is on) will be on as well as the parking lights.
