Fog Lights Don't Work In Auto Mode

[IamAlan]

As the title says, the fog lights work when the parking lights are on or when the headlight are on low beam, but if I switch over to Automatic mode, the fogs do not work. Is there any reason for this or is it just a "feature?"
Thanks.

What model do you have, LED's or Halogens?

My fog lights work in Auto mode. I leave them on with the lights always in Auto mode. Whenever the lights come on, the fogs come on. I have the factory LED's on an Overland.

It's a 2021 Willys. Factory

Halogen lamps. Maybe I'll give the dealer a call.

My 21 Willys had factory halogens and the fogs worked on auto. They still do with the Oracle LED headlights

Mine work in auto. Obviously you have to push the button to turn them on, but it remembers this setting.

When in Auto mode, the fog lights won't work until the auto circuit turns the headlights on. It's tied to the light sensor on the dash.

Damn, that may be it! Okay, mystery solved. User error...

As above but I’ll add this...

I have the halogen front, led rear Willys: and I think I had to manually turn on the fog lights, in auto, then leave them “on” and they will turn on/off with the auto headlights.

I think I’m saying the same thing....

And nice Jeep! Looks good in Willys!

Note: While 4wheeling, Fog lights will not stay on, when your high beams are switched on. This can only be accomplished with something like a Tazer.
