Default Rear Fog Light Not Working

I'm almost there with the SWB as I prepare for the MOT, however I have no rear fog light. I may also note that although the old UR wiring is still there, but there are no front fogs fitted anymore.

So far I've quickly checked the following:

1. Fuses.
2. Power to fog light wiring at the rear.

Also note that the fog light symbol is not illuminated on the dash display when the switch is pushed.

Anybody had a similar problem?

Is your fog light switch ok?

My switch would only activate front and rear fog lights when I felt it click twice, and only then did the light on the instrument cluster appear.

The internals can perish with age but are fixable...

I'm sure I've got a spare cluster somewhere. It is on my list to check but have never known these switches too fail.

Thanks for the reply.

Swapped out the switches to no avail.

Time for the DVM I think to check some volatges.
