Front fog lights

From CEM to VEM, from LED to lightbulb and more. If you have an electrical problem, like a broken info-centre, search for answers in this category. This is also the place to be when you expect the problem to be of an electrical nature...

No idea about the foglights, but if it's any reassurance, the headlight indicator on the dashboard doesn't appear to do anything on either of my 480's ('89 and '93). I know it's definitly not the bulb on one of them, but haven't checked the other yet.... I've just assumed that this is normal, or was something for the european market! :D

healight indicator must work as you pull the stalk.
the fog lights only work as the popups are up (at least on my, german car) dutch can also switch extra fog lights as the running lights are on
Refer to the electric scheme.
