I have a question, someone who is electrical savvy should be able to answer fairly easy.

I am rewiring my reverse lights for my new JCW bumper, so i am swapping the 3 wire connector that came stock on my car for the reverse and fog light combo over to a 2 wire connector for my new JCW bumper that only has reverse lights. My car is not optioned for fogs.
On the passenger sound i took the blue/gray wire to pin 1 and the brown wire to pin 2 on the new connector. I found info on this site that told me the blue/gray was reverse light, black/blue was fog and brown was common/ground. But on the driver side the wires were completely different. You have a green, black/white stripe, and a brown. I took the brown and green and put the green in pin 2 and the brown in pin 1 on the new contactor. I switched the car on and flipped it to reverse and both lights lit up, so it seems to have worked.

So my question is, it seems it does not matter if i put power in pin 2 and ground in pin 1 in a 2 pole contactor, is this true? Thank you in advance.

 

I would assume it matters because even tho your car isn't optioned for rear fogs one of those is for fog light power and one is for reverse lights (assuming blacks are grounds).

fyi, I plan on wiring the unused fogs up to the reverse lights so both are on when in reverse.

 

I'm not sure you understood the question.

 

sorry, probably not - I just read thru it real quick.

 

No worries, the lights are working i was just asking for my OCD.
