Fog lights no workie

[BorHor]

I searched btw but fog is too short of a term. and I don't remember many people asking about it.

My fog lights haven't worked in a month or 2 but I finally remembered to try and crack down on the problem. I checked my fuse, my relay, lights, and my switch and it is all good. I guess I can double check it all later. Anyone have any ideas about what might be wrong?

bulbs? Mine weren't working, and I checked all that stuff, made sure the relay 'clicked', then it turned out to just be the bulbs. Put new ones in and they work fine now, but I also did the fog light mod at the same time.

 

[BorHor]

As I said they seem to be good. I will check again though.

check the ground contacts for the bulbs, mine was all corrected and after a bit of sanding...wala.

 

[BorHor]

Checked that too

Check the bulbs by taking one out and feeding it 12v from the battery. If it lights up and starts to get hot, it's good.

Have you done the fog light rewire? If not, you are remembering to turn on the headlights first, right? If so, check the wiring for the rewire, AND check the fuse you tapped into for the signal...

Are you running different headlights - HIDs, for instance?

 

[BorHor]

I did do a rewire a long long time ago. I also made sure that there was a power source again. I did check the inline fuse I put in. And I am running HID's but it wasn't an issue for the year it was in there.

 

[GrimJack]

You checked the inline fuse... but did you check the fuse for the signal? For instance, if you tapped into the Gauge wire, did you check the Gauge fuse?

 

[BorHor]

Good point.. I will go check that.

 

[BorHor]

Thank you grim. I probably would not have checked the signal with out you posting. It works now. I guess the wire was not contacting or something.

Excellent. Glad to hear you're back in business!
