I am currently replacing all the bulbs in my car with HID's and wanted to change some stuff around. This is all on a s5 vert btw

first off my highbeams haven't worked since I bought the car, if I pull on the light stalk with the headlights off it will flash them but only the low beams, however with the lights on I pull the stalk and nothing happens. Do the high beams use a seperate fuse or a relay or is this a common problem that is fixed else where? The bulbs are brand new so that's not the issue

Secondly I want to wire it so I can turn my fog lights on without having to turn on my headlights even if I have to turn on my parking lights that's ok just want fogs without headlights...any wiring suggestions I would appreciate it.

Lastly and not highly important but I want to know if its possible to rewire the headlight switch where when I turn the headlights on the headlight motor switch will still allow me to flip them down and direct them through the ftp's.

Thanks in advance for all the help.
