my fogs arent working :/

well the title says it all...

i parked and looked at the reflection in the store window and saw that my fogs weren't on, i always have them on when my lights are on so i tried to turn them on and nothing... the car is practically brand new, less than 2000 miles on it... so i doubt that they burned out.

all i can think of was that i vacuumed and washed my car today... idk! EEERRR!

any ideas?

Ok...try this...

Take a phillips head screw driver and take the screw out of the fog housing, then pull the fog housing away from the bumper...unplug the harness.

Repeat to the other side.

Then make sure they are both dry, and that no clips inside are bent or broken.
Also, check that the bulbs don't have any rattling pieces inside...that they look as if they still have a full ..umm...coil.

Then reclip the harness, reinstall the foglight housing

Repeat for the other side.

Get into the car, turn off your fog switch

Turn on the ignition (won't hurt)

And turn your lights on...then turn on your fog switch

Get out and check...

Eh?
