My fog lights don't work on either side. After trying different bulbs, I tested for power with a VOM - no power. Next, I swapped the fog light relay out with several others...still no power.
What are the next logical things to check? Do the fog light switches go bad? Thanks. |

Bet money that Dick is right, you have the high beams on. If you’re any good at electrical, rewire the fog lights to an independent switch and relay so you can operate them separately from your headlights. I use my foglights that way as daytime running lights. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Would like the daylight setup but not an option for me bugger it. |
