Fog light not working

Post by Maximus »

Hi all,

I have an S reg 206 (I know, not a cc, but thought you may be able to help anyway) & the fog light, mounted in the middle of the rear bumper, won't work. The bulb is fine, as are all the fuses, so clearly it's either a wiring or switch issue. How much of a ball-ache job is this going to be to sort out myself & if not, how expensive at a rip off garage?

Cheers,

Max

Start with the easy-
Check bulb holder (seen many of these faulty) & earth connection. Use a test light to check between the power feed and the chassis (headlights and foglight on)
Then check poer to fog light switch and that power is leaving. After that it gets a bit more messy.
How far are you willing to dig as I could probably find a wiring diagram?
Cheers Col.
