Not sure what you mean by turning them off, but will not turn on.

I have the Baja fog lights and have had no issues.

I would not think so. It has been a while since I installed them and cannot remember the process. Since they are LEDs, I would think polarity has to be confirmed. Also check if there is power to the plug.

Polarity likely is reversed.

If I remember correctly when I did mine I had to swap the connector pins on the adapter harness to make them work on the 958.

Can you take pictures of all the connectors. It has been too long since I did mine, but do also remember that I had to make sure the wires were correct.
