gauges VS "auto up" circuit

I have two new gauges and noticed something odd the other day, revving turns my foglights on and off.

Ive checked all the wiring on the boost gauge as that is the most recent addition. all of the wiring for that is clear and safe, does nothing to change the problem. Finally figured it's the auto up circuit and it's likely sensitive to the small variations caused by these gauges (boost and aquamist).

anybody else have this happen? any ideas on how to solve this?

What gauges? A kit? Is it the Stewart Warner kit? That plugs into e back of the switch cluster?

Nothing in the auto-up that should affect your fogs. Where are the boost and aquamist tapped in to? The OEM driving light switch taps into the radio circuit for aux lighting.
