Hi
checked both relays and they both work (I checked both just to be sure)
I do not belive I need the stalk switch as my rear fogs switch is on the centre dash
and i have the wiring as per the pictures for the non stalk switch.
I am going to check this switch more careully if I can take it apart to see if i can test it
any ideas which pins (numbered as per the haynes manual) I need to bridge to to confirm it works?

Re: D8 Front fogs retrofit

it might just be better getting another switch.

Re: D8 Front fogs retrofit
Just wish to say I now have successfully front and rear fogs.
Thank you for all your help
I am not quite sure how I fixed it.
Before I went on holiday I had fitted the switches and the front fogs did not work
With the front fog switch, I returned and found neither front or rear fogs worked.
I fitted both switches and now they both workj fine! Weird!!
Just one question - is there the wiring for the LH rear fog...I know there is no bulb.
Thanks
Doug

Re: D8 Front fogs retrofit
glad you got sorted mate.
no wiring isnt there because i fitted a buld on my RHS and it did not work.
you will need to run wires fron the left across to get it working .

Thanks Gary406
one last thing the indication on the dash for the front fogs does not illuminate when i switch them on
my front fogs work independantly from the rear fogs (the switches for both are not on the stalk)
is it just a bulb i need to fit?

Re: D8 Front fogs retrofit
yes it sounds like a bulb needs to be fitted into the clocks

Re: D8 Front fogs retrofit
Had the dash out today to replace some blown bulbs and at the same time to check on the bulb for the front fogs.
Well the bulb for the front fogs was there!!! Checked the bulb and it is working but it will not illuminate when the front fogs are switched on.
Just very strange after havng fitted the front fogs and for the bulb to be there but not powered when the front fogs are switched on.
Its not the end of the world as the switch to the lower right side of the steering wheel has a little green light when switched on, but can anyone advise why the bulb on the dash is not working?
