3 pin rocker switch to 4 pin factory fog light harness

[Robb]

The fog lights are not working on the TJ, bulbs and fuse are fine. Switch feels funny, not 'snapping' into place, so I ordered a replacement.
Got around to messing with it today and broke one of the tabs off the bezel so I need another bezel (in the WANTED forum) but the new rocker I have has a 3 wire pigtail, but the factory fog light plug in is a 4 pin. And of course the 4 pin plug will not fit into my new rocker. That would be far too easy if they would have made them to accept the fog light harness plug in...
Sooo, any thoughts on how to wire a 4 pin harness into a 3 pin rocker switch pigtail?
Thanks for any insight. I suppose I should just order a factory fog light switch. I bought mine from Morris 4x4 and just assumed it would fit. It looks identical to the factory 97 fog light rocker switch.
Thanks for any help, I appreciate it.

If it was mine. I would contact a junkyard and see if they had a factory one. Only because I hate cutting the factory wiring harness.

You definitely got some cheapo aftermarket switch. I would definitely go OEM. If the switch is broken you could always pull it apart and see if it can be fixed before ordering a new one. Couldn’t hurt anything.

Here is a link to a site that shows what each pin is for:

https://www.stu-offroad.com/electrical/elec9/fogswitch-1.htm

Here is the quick version copied from the same site:

Pin 1 = dimmer control (variable + voltage from dashboard dimmer)

Pin 2 = + 12 volt switched output (for your fog lamp control relay)

Pin 3 = +12 volts in (from battery or other +12V source)

Pin 4 = ground

Thanks for your help.
