Fog Light Issue was created by Statey
Hopefully someone can help!

A while ago I removed the front bumper and took the factory fitted fogs off to fix the crack in it.
It was a while before I put them back in but since I have they don't work anymore!

I've cleaned the connections and when I press he button in the cab he green light comes on indicating they should be working.
I've checked the bulbs and put a multi meter on the end and it's not showing any power.

I've looked at fuses under the steering wheel and all look good but I'm now stumped!
Any ideas?

Cheers
Statey

Can you trace the wiring back from the lights for a foot or so then check for voltage there. As the lights used to work it could be a bad connection when you refitted the bumper. Doubt it will be a fuse as the switch lights up.Do the bulbs work, they could have blown when disturbed taking the bumper off. :) :)

Were the lights factory fitted or an after market fit using the correct light units and switch?

The factory fit have a relay and fuse to the lights operated by the illuminated switch, so if the fuse is gone, or the relay is burnt out/dirty they won't come on, but the tell tale does.

I believe the front fogs have a separate fuse in an auxiliary fuse box somewhere, might be the one by the battery, or somewhere else.
The one by your feet has the fuse for the rear fog, which is different.

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

the fuse for these was taped to my positive cable straight off the battery, hope this helps.
