Double check all fuses with a tester. I dont know off the top of my head but look up the power wire for the fogs and see if you spliced into it or a wire to the relay. and lastly, please promptly remove the truck nutz from the rear end.

 

Where did you get the power and ground for the CB from? I'm thinking the power may be looping through the ground causing problems. You'd be best to grab power and ground direct off the battery. CB's are very sensitive to electrical interference. They also cause plenty of interference.

 

the ground is running to the nearest bolt and the power is linked right to the fuse box i'm gonna check all the fused today with a test light also for the test light all i have to do is link the aligator clip to any ground right an then i go forth with with the tip to chevk the fuses? RIGHT? i never have used a test light b4 and i just bought one
