Unless you have done the ROW wiring mod, fog lights will only work when the headlights are on - have you pulled the main switch out one notch to activate them?

+1 on what 4Fun says. Pull it out to the second notch to active the rear fog lights.
No. Not kidding.
Euro cars, some of them, have a brighter taillight feature so traffic to the rear can see you in poor visibility conditions. yep.


NOOOOOOOOOOOO body knows about this hidden feature. Nooooooooooooooooo body...

How many times we have seen some dufus driving around with the bright tailights going (in Volvo or something) and we figure yup...sure thing...he has no idea where the switch is to turn them off...

Wooof!

The main headlight rotary switch - it pulls out one notch for front foglights and 2 notches to turn on both front and rear foglights; only does this if the switch is turned to the parking light or manual headlight positions.
