Hi folks, I'm aware this topic has come up a few times in the past. I've trawled those topics but don't think i've seen details of any particular installations.

I've got a hold of a set of fog-lights (https://www.eurocarparts.com/p/aftermarket-front-fog-lamp-475780091) and I've bought a wiring kit from fleabay (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/265135584029)

 

They've sent through the attached wiring instructions but I could do with some tips from more experienced members!

I assume I need to do some VCDS poking too in order to get them working - also just realised i'll need a new switch...

Thanks

my concern with those instructions is there is NO mention of any Skoda vehicles, let alone the Fabia.

 

The BCM's "maybe" the same, but will need to look carefully through the wiring diagrams to confirm.

 

Can you not ask the seller for Fabia instructions ?

Yeah this was my thought too. The listing was specifically for the 5J so a little concerned by that. I’ve asked if they have Skoda specific instructions etc. 
 

Is there somewhere I could find the pin out of the BCM? Or could a member with factory fitted fogs share where the fog loom is connected up?

Legend. 
 

yeah mine is registered may 2011 so should be included. 
 

thanks!

It actually says from "may" 2011........

 

So could include or not, depending on your build date.

 

It takes a while to get that info from the manual onto those files because of the way the virtual machine runs within windows

 

so have a look through what you think you will need, then list the PIN numbers and I will double check V the earlier version.

 

 

Thanks for this - I'll post when i get chance to look at it properly. Theres an additional question - the loom from ebay only has wiring for the actual fog lamps, not the DRLs. Any recommendations for that? I know its a p21w bulb, but not sure if it'll be a bit of a DIY job?
