fog lights not working

Featured Replies

 i have not had a chance to look too deep into this yet. i have checked the fuse and tried tapping on the relay with no luck. fog lights are not coming on at all both went out at the same time. it may be connected to the burning smell i was having last week as i know the fogs were working when i was smelling the burning smell and now that the smell stopped the fogs are no longer working. changing the belt might have not been the issue. what should i check into to diagnose this further?

4 cylinder 2.5  or  6 cylinder 3.0?

The Fog light wiring is different between them, mainly through the SMJ and the relay holder.

gonna state the obvious here, but start with the bulbs themselves, and the connector at the housing.

work back from there

 

Make sure you are not on Highbeam!

well its a first for me. found the issue for the fogs not working and also explains the burning smell i had a while ago. both hid bulbs in the fog lights the wires burned off from the bulbs and both ballasts melted and the whole setup kinda self destructed. i stuck my old led setup back into there and the fogs are working again.

wow, yeah, that would definitely explain the burning smell... just glad it was not any worse!

glad you found it and sorted things out

I would check the alternator output, to play it safe.
