06 VRS Front Fog Lights Wont Turn Off

[Keijax]

The front fogs on my Fabia won't turn off, doesn't matter whether the headlights are on or off, as soon as I turn the ignition on, the front fogs come on.

 

Any ideas?

[jamwatn]

has your car always been like that?

[Keijax]

No, it's a new feature, started a week of so ago!

Automatic fog light wa***r  

[Keijax]

You'll have to explain that one to me!

[Breezy_Pete]

If it were me, I'd take the bulbs out and be done with it.  However...

 

It almost has to be a faulty light switch, I think?

Find someone local you could do a swap with, see if your fault goes away, and they gain the full-time-irritating fog lights.

 

I can't remember the details just now, but it's quite easy to remove and unplug the light switch assembly, turn one click and pull, or something like that.

I think you push it in and twist to the left

[Keijax]

I can change the switch if that's the problem, easy enough.

 

I suppose I could just remove the bulb but that would leave the warning light on the dash which tells you the fog lights are on,

It's the switch, £8.50 on ebay, push in and twist like matt said.

I have one in the garage I think, fully working!

Doh! Remembered I'm no longer freedom

It's push and twist to the right. As if you was turning the lights on
