[Xyleff]

Any way besides alfaobd to have high beams and fog lights on simultaneously??

Jscan or tazer.

^^^ what he said
Potential for error codes and lights not working trying to this with relays/wiring.
Tazer is for the most part Plug-n-Play option of making vehicle configuration changes.

As others have stated, the Taser or such. That's because it needs to be done in the BCM and can't be done without right equipment investment..
Is an easy change with the AlfaOBD. Did it on my '16. I don't know, but the AlfaOBD is a really good investment, especially if you plan on doing other things, also.

For my 2018, I used AlfaOBD. For my 2005, I wired in a separate switch for the fogs. You might want to try that.

Depends on the year of your truck. I had a 2012 with a BullyDog tuner and "fogs with brights" was a selectable option in the configuration screen. So if you've got an early 4th Gen going that route may be an option.

This would only apply to trucks with the Dual headlights, as it's a federal mandate that only allows 4 forward driving lights on public roads. Trucks with Quads or projectors use both the High and Low beams, adding the fogs would make 6 forward lights. Some states require any auxiliary forward driving lights to be physically covered on public roads.

What's "legal" and what people do in the real world are two different things. I've not seen any "off road" lights with covers in decades.

I can tell you with the prevalence of deer along rural back roads in my area the "off road" LED light pods on my truck are used frequently at night, as the factory brights don't provide sufficient coverage.

Thank you all for the replies. Much appreciated.
