While driving through a bad downpour this weekend, I decided to turn on my rear fog light. When I did, I noticed that the indicater light on the switch was burnt out (the actual fog light turns on). Where can I find a replacement switch? Is it just a bulb that I can replace?

Thanks

I've always wondered. What is a rear fog light? Where is it located? In the tail-light? Or on a bumber or something?

the rear fog light is the top most red light on the rear of the wagon, and it is a lot brighter than the standard rear running lights. I think it is so that in heavy fog people can see you easier from behind and so they won't rearend you.


But, as far as the light in the switch goes, I thought mine was burned out for a couple years but then while installing a tach in the instrument cluster I had to remove that fog light switch. Then when I reinstalled it the light worked.

So, you should take the switch out, unplug the connectors to the light, plug them back on and it just might work without a new bulb.

The bulb.

Gently pry out the switch, the bulb will be in a holder which sits in the switch.

A funny little bulb, I have had luck finding them at autozone.
