fog lights don\'t work?

I have a 99' NB, and I cant figure out how to get the fog lights on. The book said to turn the nob and pull it. I tryed it and no fog lights? I know this sounds domb but can you help me? I looked at the fuse and it is ok. I have only had it a week so im still learning.

Re: fog lights don\'t work?

1) Turn Headlights on
2) with headlight knob in the on position- grasp the switch between thumb and forefinger and pull gently toward you.

Are you saying that you pull the switch and the switch moves out (entire Circle of switch moves out) and no lights- probably two burnt bulbs- my NB burns headlights all the time!

3) realize that the fog lights don't make much difference except being one more expensive thing to break.


Car does take some getting used to- make sure to try the seat/steering wheel in all positions!

Re: fog lights don\'t work?

I suppose new bulbs are about the same as any halogen bulb. I just had an entire foglight assembly replaced because the glass broke. Big job. Supposedly you cannot change the bulb without removing the entire light assembly. On the new assembly I could simply turn the back cover and the bulb pops out. Perhaps older units were sealed, or simply folks didn't notice the thing unscrews. Who knows.
