My fog lights don't come on and the fuse blows every time I pull the switch. I have been tracing the schematics and have found a relay; Haynes pg. 158 item #27 "combo relay"

I do not know what it does or where it is located.
Is it needed for the fog lights?

thanks (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif)

terminal 30 of the relay fog attaches to power end of fuse 1 where combo relay also attaches.




I don't see that on the diagram.

"Terminal 56 on the master light switch shares with both the fog switch terminal 15 and the combo relay. "

I do see that one.

I'm with you - I don't know where the mysterious "combo relay" is physically located in the car. Doesn't seem to be on the fuse panel or the relay bd in the engine compartment.

Hopefully it is just the foglight relay like you suspect! That's the clean and easy fix.

Sorry, it was late. I meant terminal 85. 30 gets power from fuse 10. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)
