I'm having some problems with my foglights on my 75. I have had it for 2 years now and i still cant figure out why the hell the fog lights wont work. the wires are all connected and I replaced the fuses...etc, etc. Well now I am just wondering if it is the foglight its self... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) any of you know if the foglight is a sealed beam or if it is a bulb.... and any of you got any for a 75-76 that you want to sell me...make sure they work...I'm already pissed enough.

do you know if you are getting voltage to them?? have you checked with a volt meter? do you have a volt meter? if not go spend $15 and get a cheap one.....
have you really look at them? pretty darn easy to figure that one out, you can either get to the bulb or you cannot (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) |

Like Mike said, First make sure you are geting power to the light fixtures themselves. The 75/76 uses a different bulb from the earlier models. They are available at your flaps. Sylvania makes a 100 watt bulb for the 75/76 that will light up your night. i've used them for three years running with no problems. If ya really do need new light fixtures (which I doubt) I have three pairs.

checked...power is getting to it but nothing is happening... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) I'll try and replace the bulb and if it comes to it replace them.
Thanks everyone for the info, Barry Fuller |
