i'm using the fog units for drl's so i have the two fog supply wires on each side doing nothing ,so is there any way of 'fooling' the bulb warning by fitting a resister or joining the wires together... ... - .- -.

And the reason using fog lights in clear conditions is illegal is ?  2008 MY Supercharged

This makes me  

to avoid any more sad faces this is what i'm doing....
led bulbs in fog light enclosures which are connected to a drl control module..
fog feed wires not connected to anything resulting in bulb warning on dash....  ... - .- -.

"236
You MUST NOT use front or rear fog lights unless visibility is seriously reduced (see Rule 226) as they dazzle other road users and can obscure your brake lights. You MUST switch them off when visibility improves.

Well you have said

the fog light units will be homologated as fog lights and not DRL's and would be an MOT failure would they not? That is if you presented the car for testing with them connected up as DRL's of course. With the amount of notice our police seem to take of people who drive around with front fog lights permanently on I'm sure you would have many happy miles of motoring with them rigged as DRL's Scarey  2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

You'll have to ellaborate..... have you removed fogs and replaced with driving lights (DRL'S)?

i've re-designed my setup...
led bulbs fitted in main beam enclosures powered by drl control box.
main beam wires connected to halogen bulbs in fog enclosures.

all will be put right for mot .. ... - .- -.

hi, i understand what you have done, the fogs are no longer fogs but are led driving lights that dont project light that far at all, not to stop the warnings you need to fool your lcm in thinking the bulds are still there, this is dont by connecting a resistor between the live and neutral, this allows just enough load to fool the lcm that the bulb is still there, V8 facelift Range Rover Autobiography 22" wheels.
