Fog light switch
Have done a search but not come up with concrete answer.
Fog light switch:
Does it need to be iluminated?
Does it need to have a symbol?

you need a light to show it,s on,must only come on with side lights as well (think the book says headlights....but a lot of production cars it comes
on with sides only)

symbol = yes
illumited = no
must have a warning light to show when it's on (i put a little let directly above the switch) and must only work with dip beam headlights on.
built a car, built a home, had a family. lost the family, lost the home, still got the car.

Side lights only ??? What would the point in that ? THink you must mean dipped beam. Side lights are the little bulbs that light up bugger all!

Andy, you have a prem loom, that sorts out when the Fog light can come on, the only issue is whether you need a lit switch to show when it is actually
on and blinding people behind

-------------------------------
Are you contradicting yourself here as you say "illumited = no " then "must have a warning light to show when it's
on"???
I'm not having a go it's just confusing...or have i missed something?
So basically i need a switch that iluminates when i switch the fog lights on but don't need the symbol?

there has to be a light,my shopping trolley one is on the speedo,the switch isnt iluminated apart for showing you where it is in the dark.as long as
you can see via a light that the rear fog is on then thats ok
