    Did you install your projectors into your fog??? Check all the wiring. Make sure you have soldered the connections instead of just twist them together.

    To troubleshoot it, take it out and wire it directly into the battery using jump start cable and see if it stays on all the time. If it does then it is your connection or your fog wiring.

    Are you running oem or aftermarket intercooler?
    HOw did you fit the fog light on the driver side, I have no space with the oem?

    like I said, if your wiring does not have enough juice. You need to hook that up to the battery and run a relay to it for switching.
