Title: Mk4 golf front fogs
Post by: Ajamesc on 25 November 2017, 18:16

Just noticed my mk4 has fogs built into the front head lights. Also has the front fog symbol on the switch but they don’t work. Anyone know the fuse / relay numbers?

Interested to see how you get on with this question...the service manual provides some confusing advice.

eg. Turn switch to sidelight position and pull out to first detent position..turns on rear foglight.
     Turn switch to full (dipped) headlight position and pull out to second detent position and both front and rear come on.

My rear one works as it should, but I can't get my front ones to work. No real problem for me as I have a set of LED angel eye types, fitted in the lower side grill sections and they are automatically turned on when the motor is running.
They double as DRLs and fog lights...over here, all vehicles moving on the road MUST have front, white lights, showing at all times, regardless of the time of the day. My lights are set up so whenever the motor is running, headlights (dipped) and the LEDs are showing. When I stop and park, switch the motor off, the headlights go out straight away...the LEDS stay on for about 2 mins.

I’ve not even looked at it yet I’ve my service van this week as I’m a call out technition for daf. Was just after info. I’ll look at it on Monday when I do the belt. If put the lights on pull the switch out the rear fogs work and the dash icon comes on. Pull the switch out one more and nothing happens. The switch must signal a relay. I’ll fix it lol.

Front fogs should come on on first pull out, rears only on the second?!

Sorted it now they only come on first pull on side lights only. If you turn the head lights on they go off. Someone said above that’s how they work

Turn your headlights on and the fog lights go off, sounds logical :grin:

I guess there there more driving lights than fogs. I’ll read the hand book when I dig it out.
