Hi All,

I have no way of knowing if my fog lights are on.
Should something glow?

It was one of the other things it failed its MOT on.
If it helps I believe one of the rear fog lights is possibly also blown.

Thanks
Regards
Paul

On my S4 the buttons themselves light up when you press them to turn on the front/rear fog lights. Well, the centre lights up with the fog light symbol in it.

Hi Paul :)

On my S2 they glow in middle of each switch (one for front and one for rear) ONCE pressed IF the headlights are ON....


All the best Brett :)

on mine, the main light switch is lit all the time (that the ignition is on), when you switch the main lights on all the other switches light up, then when you switch the fog/driving lights on these switched get brighter... even the switches are complex engineering... what chance do we have :)

If they don't light at all, I'd start with the little bulbs inside the switches... the rubber bit just pulls off

Ahhh ... thanks Geo ... that could be a culprit. Nice day today so going to have a fiddle a bit later. Hopefully put my new steering wheel and carpets in :-)
