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. |

JWest engineering has a kit to convert the fog lights to turn on without the headlamps being on at all.
Highly recommend this. I use the fogs as daytime running lights to help the idiots out there to see me coming. |

IIRC, someone posted a "work around" using a jumper or switching legs on the headlamp switch so you didn't need the JWest kit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
