there has to be an easy way to get the fog lights to be on with both high and low beams, they fill in so well on the low beam pattern and the high beam pattern sucks, i think if the fog lights were on with the high beams it would fill in the area in front and the ditches on the sides of the road very nicely, thanks in advance from a new member...............t

Fog light switch is on the left steering wheel stalk for the 2013, prolly the 2012 too.
The earlier post about a fix is missing the point. We don't want both high and low beams on at the same time. We want the fog lamps to be on with either hi or low beams. If someone knows where I can get a hold of the wiring diagram for the 2013 CR-V Touring I could probably figure out how to mod the Fog lamp relay. I too want control of my fogs lamps. This business of the fog lamps only being on with low beams is bogus. Some bureaucrat in a office came up with that rule. I want to be able to light up the road ahead and the ditch while I am driving these back country roads of mine.

Great. We're all waiting.
High and low beams together may be overloading the wiring harness. No?

not being an ass, but the original question was to run the fog lights with high beams and low beams. Not interested in running all three together and I DO appreciate your efforts, just want the fog lights to run with the high beams, and the low beams..........thanks so much in advance........................t

Just wait till he posts all the instructions. Then you can decide to all omit any steps necessary to achieve exactly what you want.

I have HID retrofitted headlights so I have DRL fused pulled out (otherwise my HID projectors will always be ON). I would like my fog lights as my DRL. Fog lights only turn on if I have my low beams on. Hence why I want to be able to turn on my fog lights without my Low beams being on. I want to turn them on and off with or without low beams on.
Ok, I checked it out and this can be done. I even wired it to test it. Some may want to wire it this way anyways because when the Hi-Beams are on you can switch the fog lights on and off as normal. A relay will still be need to kill the circuit when the ignition is turned off so you can't accidentally leave them on. I'll include this option in my tutorial. Thanks for bringing up the subject.
This is an excerpt from the tutorial that I am building. Am I missing anything?
The first three options automatically occur when the Hi-Beams are turned on.
1. Hi-Beams with Fog Lights
2. Hi-Beams with Fog Lights and Low Beams
3. Hi-Beams with Low Beams (since some don’t have Fog Lights)
4. Fog lights operate as normal even with Hi-Beams on or Low Beams off. (An option
for those who have pulled the DRL fuse because of an HID conversion)

Dropbox / Google Drive with share public url?
Or copy and paste the text and attach images with multiple post to make it work maybe.
